Setting a Global Standard in Gender-Affirming Surgery
With Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation and a legacy of surgical excellence, Yanhee Pride Center caters to both Thai nationals and international patients. The center is known for its commitment to safety, satisfaction, and natural results—whether creating a functional and sensitive neo-vagina or a fully reconstructed and functional phallus using modern, minimally invasive techniques.
- Male-to-Female Surgeries: Advanced vaginoplasty methods ensure depth, sensation, and sexual functionality.
- Female-to-Male Surgeries: Staged phalloplasty procedures offer realistic appearance, urination while standing, and sexual performance capabilities.
“Change Your Body to Match Your Heart”
The Pride Center stands as a sanctuary for those seeking to align their outer appearance with their true gender identity. Every individual is treated with dignity, compassion, and a personalized care plan designed to foster both body confidence and mental wellness.
As Dr. Sukit Worathamrong puts it:
“At Yanhee Pride Center, we don’t just perform surgeries. We accompany each person on their journey to becoming their authentic self.”
