"Dr. Keith is simply one of the most caring and compassion surgeons I've ever met. He explained my procedure and recovery very thoroughly. Pre- and post-op he was reassuring and attentive. Removal of breasts and chest masculinization (involving large breasts): outcome is even better than I expected. Virtually no pain and a speedy recovery. His staff works hard to handle insurance approval and claims. He is very supportive and proactive for his transgender patients. I can't recommend him enough." – Anonymous
