Greetings,

It's my first post here. I've been struggling with gynecomastia since my childhood. I use to be quite fat but I lost a lot of weight, add a few muscle, but still got the problem. Now I'm 35, and just resigned that any exercices, cutting diets, or natural supplements won't really do the job. I guess I have to go for a surgery. But I'm scared. I read a few stories about bad operations or surgeons, and a lot of people seems to recommend to go through the operation with a surgeon specialized with gynecomastia case. So, since I'm located in Montreal, do you know a good surgeon you might know and refer to in this area? Thank you very much.

Well thanks anyway Dr. Pensler!

I'm a bit scared to go through the whole operation. I just hope I'll find a good surgeon to remove this gynecomastia condition and help me so that my body may look more tight and manly.

I'm also unaware of any surgeons in Montreal with special interest in gynecomastia.  Probably as a result of that, I have seen a few patients from Montreal over the years in Boston.  New York is also reasonably accessible from Montreal.

Good luck,

Dr. Lista is in Toronto I believe, and he has a special interest in gynecomastia.  He's listed on this forum.
