I have had this problem for a while and my past doctor just gave one answer that would have required surgery. And while that was not something I was against, not providing any other options or actually looking at more detail or why I have the problem was an issue. This was honestly the best doctor's appointment related to this that I have ever had.

Going to the doctor is challenging for me. It's embarrassing to talk about my issues and have frequently had my concerns totally dismissed by doctors. With Dr. Sullivan it's completely different. I really feel like she listened, understood and was concerned with my comfort during the appointment. After feeling like a prop for young male students to practice on without any say in the matter, I considered leaving the U of U system entirely. Dr. Sullivan is just amazing and made me feel validated about my concerns and comfortable enough to talk about them.

Dr. Sullivan seems to be good at her job, *except* for the fact that she kept misgendering me--using the wrong pronouns, calling me a woman, etc.--both during our call and in her notes. She especially should know my gender because my first-ever visit with her was about my transition.
