Top Surgery in New Jersey
New Jersey has made significant progress in ensuring transgender and non-binary residents can access gender-affirming care without traveling out of state. The state’s strong anti-discrimination laws protect transgender individuals, and the number of healthcare providers offering services like Top Surgery and hormone therapy has grown steadily.
In 2019, New Jersey expanded Medicaid to cover gender-affirming procedures as part of its benefits, making Top Surgery more accessible to residents. That same year, Dr. Jonathan Keith established a comprehensive gender surgery practice at Rutgers Center for Transgender Health, becoming the first surgeon in the state to offer Phalloplasty. Dr. Keith also performs Top Surgery and other gender-affirming procedures, providing patients with experienced and individualized care.
In addition to Dr. Keith, other surgeons in New Jersey specialize in Top Surgery. While many of these surgeons are concentrated in urban areas, New Jersey residents also benefit from proximity to New York and Philadelphia, which offer additional options for gender-affirming Top Surgery.
