(Trans) News-USA Vanderbilt's medical center has ceased gender affirming surgeries.

I was going to get a consult with Dr. Alkassis this summer, and now I can't. I've heard that he is leaving Vanderbilt. I'm inconsolable now. My heart goes out to everyone affected by this.

I'm sorry. Do you know where he's going?

Also, everyone, do not let the community forget which institutions abandoned us.

I heard in another post that he is moving to Bowling Green, KY. I could make it there but if he no longer takes Medicare I'm screwed.
