Dr. McDonald offers Pre-surgical Assessments for transgender individuals who wish to undergo surgery to conform their bodies to their gender identity. These are one-time assessments with a report delivered directly to your surgeon, and are conducted per World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) guidelines (Dr. McDonald is a member of WPATH).

A similar but shorter psychological assessment (a "Clinical Assessment of Gender Dysphoria") is sometimes required by doctors or insurance prior to beginning hormone treatment. This kind of assessment includes less testing, but a similar interview.
Pre-surgical Assessments are billed at a flat rate of $650 and may take 3-5 hours, and Clinical Assessments for possible diagnosis are billed at $350, and usually take about 2 hours.
