Quirónsalud Torrevieja Hospital’s Patient and Community Advisory Council marks its first year with new initiatives to improve patient care and accessibility

Osmania General Hospital in Hyderabad has introduced a gender-affirming surgery service within the government healthcare sector in Telangana, expanding access to specialised care for transgender individuals. A multidisciplinary team of specialists, including surgeons, anaesthesiologists, endocrinologists, urologists, gynaecologists, psychiatrists, nursing staff, and other professionals, have been working on this initiative over the past eight months.

The service offers procedures such as frontal bossing reduction, autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation, breast augmentation using implants, penile inversion vaginoplasty, and bilateral nipple-areola complex-sparing mastectomy. Breast implants are facilitated through letters of credit under the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund (CMRF).

The hospital aims to provide safe, accessible, and affordable gender-affirming surgical care, particularly for those facing financial and logistical barriers.
