After doing some research on this board and other places I decided to move forward with Gyno surgery. I made sure to find a doc that had a great track record and was able to remove the glands/sculpt the chest cosmetically without any issues.
Based on what I read, Dr.Blau used to be the man, but unfortunately his prices exceeds $10K, his quality has decreased recently and I heard horror stories of a few botched jobs.
Dr. Maffei was HIGHLY recommended and I spoke to a few board members who had a Great experience and recently paid $5K for everything.
I was excited to hear this and set up a consult with him, only to be given a price of $10K for the gyno procedure.
At $5K I was ready to go, but I'm def not doing it for double the price. Also he said that he does not take out the Full Gland which is a bit risky if my estrogen gets elevated again and the gyno returns. I am also paying for the peace of mind of not worrying about excess aromatization.
I saw incredible before/afters with Dr. Asare located here in Manhattan. He has a unique procedure and wants to take the Full Gland out. He quoted me at $7200. Which was the lowest of the of the "skilled gyno docs".
I wish I could use my health insurance to pay a portion of the fee. I pay an arm and a leg for my premium and I hardly use it.
All but 1 doc accepted insurance which would pay partial for the Gyno surgery. But out of pocket, I'd still be paying $7,000+.
I was curious if anyone had a recommendation for a good doc for a decent price?
My gyno is not too terrible and to me paying $5K cash is the ideal range for what I'm dealing with.
Figured I'd ask here to see if there is anyone else I can have a consult with?
If the quality is legit & the price is right, I'd even travel out to a great Doc.
