About Dr. Scott Mosser (he/him)

Dr. Mosser is a board-certified plastic surgeon who has a deep and long-lasting commitment to gender confirmation surgery. He has over 13 years of experience performing gender affirming surgeries and has been exclusively devoted to gender affirming care since the opening of The Gender Confirmation Center in 2013.

Dr. Mosser believes that the best results are obtained when he first understands the needs and desires of his patients, and then empowers them with the understanding of what leads up to and comes after surgery. He emphasizes a superior level of customer service and compassion from start to finish, with the hope that his patients know  they have the full support of the entire team from the initial consultation  through the completion of recovery.

Dr. Mosser always works to educate himself on the emerging needs of the transgender community, and spends time educating fellow medical professionals on the challenges and inspiration that trans individuals bring to the surgical experience.
