Full Metoidioplasty in Philadelphia
Dr. Kathy L. Rumer is a board-certified, award-winning plastic and reconstructive surgeon based in the Philadelphia area whose practice is geared exclusively toward transgender patients. In addition to performing hundreds of gender-affirming procedures each year, Dr. Rumer also directs a 1-year gender surgery fellowship program.
For trans men seeking Metoidioplasty surgery, Dr. Rumer offers two variations:
- Simple Meta or Simple Release - A good option for trans men who do not require Vaginectomy or Urethroplasty. Scrotoplasty and Testicular Implants are optional.
- Full Metoidioplasty - Includes Vaginectomy and Urethroplasty, as well as Scrotoplasty and Testicular Implants.
With Dr. Rumer's Metoidioplasty surgeries, the ligament that holds the clitoris in place under the pubic bone is cut, allowing the entire penile structure to be free of surrounding tissues, giving it more exposure and additional length of up to 50%.
Associated procedures such as Hysterectomy and Mons Resection are also offered.
Consultations: Choose an in-person, phone or Skype consultation. The cost is $100 and the fee is applied to your Metoidioplasty.
