Reposting with an update: I got ALT phallo with no UL, w/ burial, scrotoplasty and v-ectomy 2 days ago!! 
I had a really frustrating time finding recent picture of Dr. Crane’s work so I will be documenting my healing process on here to hopefully help anyone out who’s trying to pick a surgeon.
So far, I’ve had nothing but a positive experience with Dr. Crane and he’s staff. The wait time to have a consult was 6 months. I made multiple appointments with him after that has more questions popped up in my head and those were about 1-2 month wait. Surgery was 9 months since first consult.
They got all my paperwork done ASAP but the did charge $25 to process FMLA paperwork which I thought was weird but I think is worth paying extra for a surgery like this. They clearly communicated what I needed to do paperwork wise and prep/post op instructions. Westlake hospital (where he does all his surgeries) is a beautiful place and everyone has been amazing and attentive. I was worried about being in Texas but Austin is a college town and very LGBTQA+ friendly in my experience and from asking around. My experience in San Francisco for top surgery was far worse.
Crane himself has been so wonderful and I’m so glad I chose him as my surgeon (lots of people have negative opinions of him and told me not to go to him). This hasn’t felt like an assembly line the way the Gender Confirmation does (went there for top surgery) but instead feels like personal care from trained experts. He’s been patient/nonjudgmental with all my questions and explained everything so well. It’s painful but drugs are great. The daytime nurse aren’t very attentive though. They aren’t taking my guy’s pulse every hour like they’re supposed to and not responding quickly when I press the button. Night shift is way better.
It’s thinker than I hoped because my arteries were really small so he took a bit of muscle that had a stronger blood supply. He told me during 2nd stage he will debunk the muscle out after stronger arteries form in the tissue itself. Stage 2 will also include glansplasty and testicular implants. All these photos are from the day of surgery. Willing to answer any questions.
