At IM GENDER you will find a clear commitment to the most cutting-edge and reliable technology, with technologically cutting-edge operating rooms and the most innovative equipment in the sector. All this, added to a medical team expert in gender surgery with more than two decades of experience led by Dr. Ivan Mañero, the most recognized plastic surgeon specialized in gender reassignment surgery in Europe and even internationally. In addition, Dr. Mañero was a pioneer in unique/specific surgical techniques for genital affirmation, such as vaginoplasty with graft.
The entire human team that makes up IM GENDER, from Patient Care to medical, health professionals, psychologists and physiotherapists, are trained in health care based on human rights, respect and privacy of all patients. Our goal is to offer all the necessary information before, during and after the surgery through close treatment and personalized attention.
HISTORY OF IM GENDER
In 2002, IM GENDER was born out of the need to offer a specialized team to a group of people whose needs and demands had been ignored and neglected by a large portion of the medical community, either due to lack of knowledge of the treatment or due to inadequacy of its application.
The medical team at the IM CLINIC Gender Unit began treating trans people in 1999 (the year of its creation). At that time, Dr. Ivan Mañero had already specialized in genital-affirming surgery in response to the requests of some of his patients, who realized that they were not receiving the care they deserved at other centers. In 2002, given the number of trans people seeking care from our team, it was decided to create a specialized unit to offer them personalized care and service.
Today, more than 20 years later, the Gender Unit, which has become an international benchmark in Gender-Affirming Surgery, takes a new leap forward by becoming IM GENDER.
IM GENDER brings together a team of more than 30 professionals, offering more services and in more disciplines, always with the sensitivity, commitment, and excellence that characterizes the IM CLINIC Gender Unit.
Dr. Ivan Mañero, a reference
Dr. Ivan Mañero, reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgeon, is an international leader in gender-affirming surgery for trans people.
He has been performing and perfecting this and all types of surgeries for trans people for over two decades, both domestically and internationally.
His professionalism has led him to international recognition and in-demand, participating and moderating events at industry conferences. From the beginning, he advocated for specialized and sensitive care for trans people. However, in the early days, he had to deal with other professionals and a lack of understanding from society who didn’t understand why a specialist like him would treat this type of person.
A pioneer in certain gender reassignment surgical techniques, Dr. Ivan Mañero has collaborated with various government agencies to ensure that these types of procedures are included in our country’s public health service. This will allow him to offer greater and better care to trans people who require it.
