    I knew this would start eventually, but I can’t help being shocked that we’re here.

      it is a shock, VUMC was the main hospital providing gender affirming surgeries for the entire region - people traveled from all over the midwest and southeast to go there; they employed some of the best surgeons imo as well, you would have to go to NYC, CA, or Thailand to get similar results AFAIK.

      after the recent ruling that states are free to ban gender affirming care for adults, I worry the same

      (at least gender affirming care for trans people, obviously cis people meanwhile will still enjoy access to the same procedures and medications without question)
