I completed the phalloplasty process with Dr. Toby Meltzer (Scottsdale, AZ, USA) in 2008.

Hello,
I've been thinking about making a consultation with Dr. Meltzer and I'm curious about how your surgery went with him. How much did it cost?

Hi Zander,
I too am interested in your sx experience with Dr. Toby Meltzer and how you feel about the working and aesthetic quality of your results. Why did you choose him over North American surgeons and how well and quickly did you heal. Of course I too am interested in the costs incurred (with travel expenses) and how you were able to afford this? I am considering every option right now despite being quite broke. Thanks for any info you can afford us. I am also interested in how you started getting yourself into shape post top surgery. Do you have any exercise advice. I am currently 5.5 weeks post-op with Dr. Garramone. Thanks Zander.

hey brother.
First off, i should let you know that my entire phallo process was covered by insurance (100%!!). My wife's employer, the city/county of san francisco provides $75,000 worth of trans surgical care.
I am very pleased with the results. I do not go into details with people i am not familiar with, but i recommend buying a copy of Hung Jury, which is a brand new ftm anthology with 15 stories from guys with phallo and meta experiences. www.facebook.com/hungjurybook
I chose meltzer over others due his outcomes and because he was connected to my health insurance. he was closer to me, i am in california and he is in arizona. that made it easier to travel back and forth.
insurance paid for travel and lodging too.

how much your surgery cost and did you have any complications
Has anyone had any experience with Dr. Crane?
Yes, how long before you were able to stand to pee, or just walk around. Was the recovery long?

I'll be having my phalloplasty on November 26, 2013 with Dr. Salgado in Miami, Fl. He has done mine in 2 stages the first one being the creating of a neourethra in my graft site (forearm) that is later being used for the phallo. The first stage was done Aug 12, 2013. I would be happy to share info about him too if anyone is interested. Mine is also being covered by insurance so I don't have any prices off hand.
Medman,
I am currently looking at ALT with Crane but have heard very little about Salgado and have seen none of his results. I am looking to have insurance cover my costs. Do you know of any place, person who has shared results from Selgado? Does he also do ALT? If you used insurance (which one?), what was that process like working with his staff? I am also available to chat offline. Thanks.
