Ren's story
Location
Wimbledon, London, UK
Surgeon
Catherine Milroy
Referral Type
NHS Referral
Type of Surgery
Double Incision
“My consultation was free and the wait/surgery time was a few weeks (I also joined the cancellation list). My surgery was free as I was referred from the Gender Identity Clinic but the clinic is a private one. I had drains for a day.
I Stayed in hospital until the next morning and I had to wear a post op binder for about 4/6 weeks. I only had a slight infection in my nipple otherwise everything else was fine. No revisions were needed.
The overall experience was lovely. The assisting nurses before surgery and before I went in for surgery were lovely and talkative which helped me with nerves. They made sure to check up on me regularly for food and when I needed the toilet.”
