"I got my top surgery on Jan 12th and it was all thanks to you! You were the final thing I needed to get approved for this surgery and the fact that you were able to get me my surgery referral same day, was amazing! I wanted to share my initial surgery results and tell you how happy I am!"

"As someone who has never felt fully accepted, Fedora made me feel seen and heard.

I have never felt such pure kindness from a person."

G.B.

United Kingdom

"I just thought it might be nice to let you know that my letters for surgery were accepted and I have a date in March for top surgery! I just wanted to thank you again, as I said before it was so refreshing to be listened to and trusted to make the right decisions for my own body during the surgery assessment with you. Something that is not always common as a non-binary/trans person seeking medical transition."

"It felt so good hearing you affirming me and my gender identity without question — it's rare not to be questioned these days, especially when it comes to one’s identity. I hope you know that you change lives, and that you've been part of changing mine. I feel so grateful for people like you, who want to dedicate their job to help people like me.

My parents and I are truly grateful for how helpful, understanding, and sweet you were towards us today."

"Thank you so much for all your help! The session we had in January was lovely, and I am pleased to say that I have now got a date booked for top surgery! It was really nice to have you listen and not interrogate - gender-affirming care involves a lot of "proving yourself", so knowing that you were firmly in my corner was really helpful and allowed me to be more open with my thoughts. Also, you're just a very kind person! I quickly felt safe in your presence. Additionally, your mention of how we only get one body and one chance at life, so we need to make ourselves as happy as possible, has stuck with me and changed the way I approach all situations, not just those related to my transition. I'm now taking steps towards becoming a teacher! :) Many thanks for everything. May your future be bright!"

I can't downplay the impact of being seen in this way, and I will always be grateful to Fedora for this."
