Probably not. I would want to know who he trained under. Pittsburgh had some lousy trans surgeons in the past, although I think that they are all retired now.

Yeah I just can’t leave the state for a surgery without the state kicking up a fuss (state insurance) I’ve seen his top surgery reviews and they’re amazing

He's not in the wiki, so likely very little experience.

I don't quite understand his profile. He says he's a plastic surgeon, but it looks like he's only eligible, not certified.

Brodie Parent MD, MS is a Reconstructive Plastic and General Surgeon, who is board-certified by the American Board of Surgery, and is Board-eligible in the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He is an Assistant Professor in the department of plastic surgery and is an adjunct professor in the University of Pittsburgh School of Public Health (Department of Health Policy and Management).

Out of curiosity, did you end up getting a consult with Dr. Brodie Parent? If you did, how did it go?
