Hi Friend,
My name is Haden Carr (he/him). I am a proud trans man and passionate about the medical sciences.
I graduated from the University of Colorado Denver in 2024 with a B.S. in Biology. Currently, I am applying to medical school to become a doctor who meets each patient at their individual level.
After navigating my own top surgery, I felt called to create this guide—not just as a resource, but as part of a broader commitment to bring about education within our community.
Like many of you, I started my search with a mix of urgency and hope. I opened a browser and typed:
