BMC’s Yawkey building doors are now closed as an entrance as part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our campus and provide you with the best clinical care.

All patients and visitors on our main campus must enter our hospital via Shapiro, Menino, or Moakley buildings, where they will be greeted by team members at a new centralized check-in desk before continuing to the hospital. We are excited to welcome you and appreciate your patience as we improve our facilities.

Gender Affirming Surgeries


BMC aims to provide accessible, individualized, and comprehensive gender-affirming care for our patients. We perform a wide range of gender-affirming surgeries, including:

  • Orchiectomy, in which the testicles are removed from the scrotum
  • Neovaginoplasty, in which the skin of the penis is used to create a new vagina
  • Genital remodeling, in which surgeons create external female genitalia but not a vaginal cavity
  • Breast augmentation, in which breast implants are used to improve breast shape and volume
  • Chest reconstruction, in which breast tissue and excess chest wall skin are removed, and the nipples are repositioned
  • Hysterectomy, in which the uterus and cervix are removed

Criteria for gender-affirming surgery are based on the WPATH Standards of Care 8, insurance requirements, and our surgical team.
