Hello.

This website is clearly the best website to help people with gynecomastia without a doubt but it seem like there could be more doctors included.

The most important thing that a patient can do it pick a qualified doctor however anyone can make a impressive website can call themselves a skilled artist of the human form and use all the right term. The trust test in what happens in the operating room which is what you don't see.

It seems like half the states in the US don't have any doctors at all and you have one a super large state( Florida) with only 1 gynecomastia doctor in the entire state.

Maybe start out with doctors who are all listed as a top doctor in something like castle Connolly, filter out doctors who are not members of the American Board Plastic Surgery, then search who doctors who list gynecomastia as a specialty(or perform a good number of gynecomastia corrective surgeries a year, then review the method they use as being sound and having good result with minimal scarring and no major complaints with state medical board. Then ask them if they would like to join this website.

I wish there were more trusted gynecomastia doctors listed on this website.

No guy in any state should have to live with this embarrassing problem. All solutions and option should be made available without having to make a pilgrimage across the country especially if there is someone within the state who has the skills needed to fix it.

I guess easier said than done, just something to ponder on website future improvements.

I'm not sure I would agree with the statement there are no gynecomstia surgeons in Texas.  I see 3 featured docs on the site and found many more in DFW when I was considering when I was looking.

It's a matter of doing the legwork and asking a lot of questions to the people you are considering seeing.  In the big picture gynecomastia is a small segment of plastic surgery.  It's a condition that isn't talked about much.  Compared to doing boob jobs and tummy tucks, there isn't going to be as much public info on who to use.

I imagine if you live in a less populated state or a rural area it could be tough, but if you live in Florida or Texas you should be able to find someone fairly easily.

I now see that there are 3 doctors listed in Texas however if you go to the map of the US where there are blue targets over each of the places with doctors, they don't show any in Texas.

gynecomastia.org/doctor-search

I guess the map application on this website needs to be updated.

Maybe the users on this board could recommend a doctor in their area if they had a really good experience. It would be nice to list more than 1 doctor for Florida or Colorado.

Especially the south Florida area is to large with so many doctors, there should be at least 1 doctor who is decent as correcting gynecomastia.
