Hi! I’m non-binary, and post-top surgery was my first time being really comfortable in my body. A little over 10 years ago, I remember breaking down to my mom and begging for a way to change my chest. I didn’t understand who I was, looking for anyone to help me understand. I was met with the immediate assumption that I wanted my chest to be BIGGER, that I could get plastic surgery, move some fat around, and have a “better” chest instead. I was around 14. I never really got past those comments, and the feeling of something being wrong with me grew. I’m 26 now, almost a year post-op, and I know now that nothing is wrong with me. The GCC let me open up, and the feelings that I had since I was 14 were being heard for the first time. Dr Jacobs was attentive, kind, and wanted to understand what I had to say. He assured me that all my feelings associated with this surgery were normal and made me feel very comfortable. The GCC answered all my questions along the way and made this huge life decision the easiest one
possible.

I cannot thank everyone enough, Dr. Jacobs, my nursing team, the front desk individuals, and everyone in-between that helped me feel welcomed and comfortable. The experience I had here made it really clear that I wasn’t broken, but that I had people that were listening and supporting the decision I made. I’m so grateful I did, and I couldn’t be happier.

I’ve had some pretty intense surgeries, and this was definitely the best overall experience, from start to finish. I felt comfortable and seen, and I highly, highly recommend the GCC.
