Facial Gender Affirming Surgery (Plastics)
Ever heard of a PA working in Facial Feminization Surgery or Gender-Affirming Plastic Surgery? Probably not.
This isn't your typical PA or NP job!
That is my goal here on The Medicine Couch, to help PAs & NPs understand ALL the options open to us in healthcare.
So, prepare for a fascinating dive into a little-known corner of craniofacial surgery: facial feminization and facial masculinization.
Whether you personally agree with gender transition or not, this interview with a plastic surgery PA in facial feminization surgery is undeniably eye-opening. He shares details about these incredible surgeries, what his duties are, and how much a position like this pays!
For my fellow PAs and NPs, you will probably be envious of the low patient volume and the time he has to truly connect with his patients! Imagine being able to answer all a patient's questions and guide them through a procedure step by step.
