A different surgeon performed my procedure, and these surgeries are usually done outpatient (meaning you go home the same day). Because of my pre-existing conditions, I stayed overnight, which ended up turning into two nights. I already knew I was going home that day, but when this doctor came in for rounds, her attitude felt dismissive—almost as if I was being sent home no matter what. She also came into the room wearing an AirPod, which I found unprofessional and surprising, especially given her leadership role in plastic surgery. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but this wasn’t it. I also understand that the strong push for patients to go home quickly is often tied to research and data for presentations at conferences—but that doesn’t make the interaction feel any better from a patient’s perspective. Based on this experience, I personally would not choose to have surgery with her unless it were a true emergency. What’s interesting is that her social media presence portrays a very different image from the interaction I had in person.

Dr. Gosman is a remarkable person and top notch surgeon, delivering excellence. The Facial Feminization surgery I received from her has been life changing.

My journey began two years ago with cancer in my face. Dr Gosman has performed 3 surgeries so far and she does impeccable work. Her expertise is top notch.

I would recommend her in a minute and feel so lucky to have found her😊

Wonderful care
Dr. Gosman took wonderful care of my son, I felt listened to and she validated all of my concerns before and after surgery. Through several wound care appointments we found her and the entire staff to be both supportive and empathetic.

Condescending, very poor bedside manner
We've seen Dr. Gosman about 5-10 times in caring for our child (clinic, surgery, post-op). The one positive and the reason we work with her, is that her technique is unique in the region for our child's condition and made sense as the best option for us. We do not, of course, know how to assess the...
