Dr. Jordan was kind and answered my questions well during the meeting. I am recovering well. I haven’t seen the final result yet so I gave 9 instead of 10. But the experience so far was very good.

Dr Jordan is brilliant. She clearly cares both about my safety, but also about what it is that I wanted out of this surgery. I know that some surgeons can take their own kind of... artistic liberties, I guess, with surgeries like this, but she wanted to know exactly what *I* wanted. She was also realistic. She told me exactly what was and was not possible, what the potential complications would be, answered all questions that I had. I'm only a week out and I'm already pleased with my results and I know it will continue to get better as I heal. I feel very lucky to have her as my surgeon.

Dr. Jordan is a rarity in healthcare. She is clearly excellent at what she does, but more importantly she is very careful and affirming to every patient. I know because when I shared about my experience with her I received multiple other accounts of amazing experiences from other queer people. Dr. Jordan is incredible and her impact cannot be underestimated. I wish there were so many more of her and her team out in the world, helping people and, in some cases, saving lives.

She was excellent at listening to me and helping me narrow down my options as far as what the most effective types of surgery would be for me and helping me visualize the results. On the surgery day, she went over everything with me again and left me feeling confident about the surgery. I felt well-prepared for recovery and if I had had any issues, I'm sure she would have handled them great. In the end, it was an easy recovery and the results are pretty much ideal.

In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
