Gender reassignment surgeries - availability of surgeon

Jem Traylen made this Official Information request to Waitemata District Health Board

The request was successful.

From: Jem Traylen

Dear Waitemata District Health Board,

Do you have a surgeon who is capable of performing gender reassignment surgeries (i.e. genital reconstruction)?

If not - are you in the process of recruiting a surgeon with such capabilities or considering the recruitment of such a surgeon?

Yours faithfully,

Mx Jem Traylen

Tena koe Anna Monastra (WDHB),

Thank you for your response - however it did not actually answer my precise question. I am asking whether you have a surgeon capable of performing such surgeries, regardless of whether or not you are offering the service at present.

For example Counties Manukau inform me that they do have such a surgeon but are not yet offering this service.

Nga mihi,

Jem Traylen
