about the author
Carl W. Bushong holds a doctorate in clinical psychology, and has been in
private practice since 1977. Dr. Bushong is the Director of the Tampa Gender
Identity Program (TGIP), where a full range of transgender services are
provided using his Informed Choice method--the individual uses their own
decision-making capabilities after being provided with the necessary
information and feedback to do so. In other words, the patient is ultimately in
charge of the decision-making process--and has access to the facilities and
expertise of a well-trained gender team.
