Here a quick summary of my experiences with Dr. Klotz. Surgeon and Urologist in Weiden(Oberpfalz)

Waiting time: about 6-9 months Skill: high in urology surgerys, satisfying in SRS, Impressions: very nice and charming SRS Style: Standard penile inversion in 2 surgerys (6 months apart)

I choose him because he is close to me and has a short waiting time. After my first appointment I trusted him. Also every other physician in my area speaks highly of him. He recommends to look for other surgeons for SRS because he himself only does about 1 SRS per month and knows most trans women have high standards. But not me, that's another reason I got my SRS with him. I also talked to another trans woman who had surgery with him and she also is pleased.

Hospital stay was good. Nurses and physicians were nice and my 16 days there have been without complications.

I may show my results to trans people that consider him.

Did you have any difficulties with urinating? I'm two year post op and experienced urinary complications from the surgery.

Im not OP - but I did for the first two weeks, flomax reduces prostate size and bladder muscles to allow for easier urination. Without it I would’ve been hospitalized for sure, now it’s sorted itself out after swelling.

I too was on flomax in the beginning. But peeing now has been completely different ever since my surgery.

In what way?

difficulty starting to pee, weak flow, tightness of my urethra and not emptying my bladder completely.

My worst fear - probably some of your urethra healed over or something. I hope you get it sorted

Can you explain the two-stage procedure (first and second stage)?

First stage is cutting and moving the tissue to form vaginal canal, shortening urethra, cutting glans into about a quarter of its size and installing it as the clitoris. So my labia is all flabby now(still waiting for stage 2).

Stage 2 is forming the labia to the desired look and correcting urethra if it is too long or making urinating messy. Also I was asked if I wanted my clitoris smaller or remain in size.

stage 1 was 16 days in hospital. surgery takes about 5 hours, and you can leave if everything heals and you can pee. this is the "big" surgery.

stage 2 is about 7 days. It takes place 3-6 months after the first. I can give you more update about it next week when I get there.

What depth and diameter did you get? What kind of dilators do you use?

Is this your surgeon? Theodor Klotz.

yes. this is him.

I have these dilators . they are not very good, but they get the job done for now and they were free. I can go to the third one which is 2cm in diameter and about 10cm long. (.8inch/4inch)

I am satisfied with that.
