From the beginning Dr. Jordan was open about the possible outcomes from this radical procedure, including negative potentials. My outcome was rosy, though we're still in the pain management and healing portion. Having spoken with a number of former MtF GRS clients I learned that Dr. Jordan's skill is held in the highest esteem.

Dr Jordan and the gender pathways program have help'd me see a reflection of myself that I could only see in my dreams and animations from whenever I was a child in the closet. She changed my life. Her work is incredible. Her and the team are light workers in this dark work for children, and young adults like myself.

She is a focussed and friendly surgeon. She was confident she could help me in the ways I needed and wanted, and also made the decisions that she felt were best for me, my goals, and my body. I also specifically chose her to do my surgery because she is a woman/not-man, AND she is POC, AND she is LGBTQ+!!!!!! Hire more of these folks, because I actually see myself reflected in the doctors and surgeons I go to, which can rarely be the case.

She's so sweet and friendly, and easy to talk to. That different surgeon I went to before made me feel small, like she was the boss of me, and she gatekept me from moving forward. Dr. Jordan made me feel like I was in control of my healthcare, and that she's there to help.

She made me feel safe enough to share with her any and all concerns I may have regarding my care and preparations for surgeries. As well, it is very intimate and sometimes dysphoric to share with a doctor my intimates / private areas. She made me feel safe and I am excited she is taking care of me. I look forward to seeing her again.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. 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.
