Dr. Mosser knows that the transgender experience of healthcare in the US is still severely lagging in many cases. By carefully choosing a team that believes in the importance of this work, he works to create a completely different experience for his patients from the very start.
Dr. Mosser’s hope is that at the end of your healthcare experience through his office and these surgical facilities, you feel like you have taken a trip to the future of healthcare, where gender acceptance is an absolute given, and respect for everyone’s place on the gender spectrum is a core norm of life.
What you can expect when visiting us at The Gender Confirmation Center of San Francisco!
St. Francis Hospital in San Francisco California has embraced Dr. Mosser’s transgender work from the highest levels of leadership on down, by creating a Transgender Program at St. Francis, as well as specialized hospital training in trans sensitivity, pronoun usage and personalized support. There is even a transgender liaison nurse team which works directly with transgender patients whenever needed.
St. Francis has been helping to empower marginalized groups with state of the art healthcare for over 100 years, and they are excited to be on the forefront of transgender care in San Francisco.
Vista Surgery Center offers advantages over a traditional hospital environment, including size, quality, service, and cost. Because Vista is smaller than traditional hospitals, it’s a more intimate setting, where you can have your surgical procedure in a quieter and calmer environment. Further, the low patient-to-staff ratio ensures highly personalized and attentive pre- and post-operative care.
Dr. Mosser is a board certified plastic surgeon who has a deep and long-lasting commitment to gender confirmation surgery. He has over 13 years of experience performing gender affirming surgeries and has been exclusively devoted to gender affirming care since the opening of The Gender Confirmation Center in 2013. Dr. Mosser believes that the best results are obtained when he first understands the needs and desires of his patients, and then empowers them with understanding of what leads up to and comes after surgery, ensuring that the patient has realistic goals about what can be achieved. He emphasizes a superior level of customer service and compassion from start to finish, with the hope that his patients are constantly aware that they have the full support of the entire team from the initial consultation through the completion of recovery.
Dr. Mosser always works to educate himself on the emerging needs of the transgender community, and spends time educating fellow medical professionals on the challenges and inspiration that trans individuals bring to the surgical experience.
We strive to empower transgender individuals to take control and become the self-made person they want to be. From our website to our office experience, we provide a supportive environment for patients to ask questions and learn about best practices to be able to make the best decision for their surgical transition.
We believe that it is every person’s right to feel comfortable in their own body. This is why we use the Informed Consent model, and recognize that there are genders beyond the binary: FTM, MTF, nonbinary, genderqueer, transmasculine, transfeminine, genderfluid, agender, butch – this is just a slice of the spectrum of our patients’ gender identities. Moreover, we have an insurance advocacy team who have successfully secured insurance coverage for over 90% of our patients.
We hope to reinforce the confidence trans people already have in themselves across our entire patient experience. All of our staff members (even those who do not interact with patients) have received transgender competency education because in our office we already live in a world where trans inclusion is a part of everyday life.
We admire the authentic self that emerges from within throughout this journey. Since Dr Mosser is skilled in a wide variety of techniques, for every individual patient we lay out all possible options so they can personalize surgery according to their needs and preferences.
We strive to help trans people to reach the right balance between being comfortable with themselves and showing the world who they truly are. Through attendance at international transgender conferences, Dr. Mosser works to educate himself on the needs of the transgender community, and also educates fellow medical professionals on the challenges and inspiration that trans individuals bring to the surgical experience.

We strive to empower transgender, non-binary, and gender-diverse individuals to become the self-made person they see themselves as. From our website to our office experience, we provide a supportive environment for patients to ask questions and learn about best practices so they can make the best decision for their surgical transition.
Our practice firmly believes that everyone has a right to feel at home in their body and we fully recognize the beautiful array of gender identities that exist within and beyond the gender binary. Access to gender surgery should not be limited by hormone use, BMI, or any other identifying factor. We are leaders in working with non-binary patients who want top surgery or body contouring, and we are growing our practice to include facial feminization surgery for femme identifying trans and non-binary folks.
Our practice uses the Informed Consent Model because we believe that our patients can make educated decisions about their unique gender journey. Moreover, we provide an Insurance Advocacy Team who has successfully secured insurance coverage for over 90% of our patients.
