Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Good over all
So far liking my results, need next one to fully see my full out come. Dr. Have been wonderful love the attention he has when talking to me right before surgery to finalize needs and wants The only issue i have is communication is limited to only email. Wish we had an option to do calls.

Ruined my life
It's really hard to leave a detailed message about what happened on these moderated sites, let me just say my whole experience with Satterwhite put me in a dark place that I will never be able to get out of.

Gratitude
I’m very grateful for Dr. Satterwhite and his team. I also need to apologize for the frustration of not trusting the process completely, Even though I’ve informed on why and the past traumas I’ve experienced with other providers that failed at providing quality care. Dr. Satterwhite is exceptionally 1 of the most compassionate providers I’ve met. It helps that he is informed about the disenfranchisement and marginalization placed on my identity. He understood the assignment and I’m receiving results. Now I’m starting to feel an alignment and congruency towards a better quality of life as my appearance is evolving and healing. I’m very thankful for Dr. Satterwhite’s patience, professionalism, skill, and attentiveness while in his care. I wish him blessings in all his endeavors as he continues to make a difference in the world with his expertise. I also send a special Thank You to Mrs. Debbie for listening to my needs and helping with resolutions.Thank you!

A dream come through experience
I wish everyone could go to Align for gender affirming surgery. My partner and I felt so supported from the prep through the surgery itself through the aftercare. Dr. Pang's work is more beautiful than I could have hoped for. I am forever grateful to Align for lifting a burden I had lived with my entire life.
