What to Bring

A couple of outfits before and after...otherwise, we supply the hospital gowns, undies, dressings, and dilators. We provide MTF patients with a quality set of tapered and graduated stents for dilation - a critical part of your post-operative care.

Some personal care items you may want to bring: a bathrobe, slippers, hair bands, a mirror for your bedside. Consider your favorite lotion, lip balm, and hard candy or throat lozenges, you may get very dry after surgery. Also, bring some triple antibiotic ointment and Q-tips to apply the ointment to the surgical incisions.

You will want to bring things to pass the time as you recover - books, CD's, tapes, portable DVD player. Laptops are fine.
