The first episode of Dr. Sajan's documentary series covered a patient named Blake who undergoes gender affirming FTM top surgery with Dr. Sajan. Having thought of surgery since he was in high school, Blake finally had his consultation with Dr. Sajan in December 2019. Blake shares his hopes for surgery, his surgery, and the scars he never wanted in the first place.
In his episode, Blake discusses his experiences with binding and how top surgery will change his life, he says, "I am a really active person. I'm slinging 50 pound bags of feed, throwing hay bales around, and with binding it is strenuous. It's really annoying to feel it, especially when it causes chaffing and discomfort. I don't even really know what a T-shirt feels like without a binder on."
Future episodes will follow other transgender patients as they undergo top surgery at Allure Esthetic. Each patient tells a unique story of discovering their identity, coming out, their discriminatory experiences, and their top surgery journey. The next episode comes out this week. Stay tuned on the realdrseattle YouTube channel, Instagram, and realdrseattle.tv to see the next episode as soon as it is published.
