Sex Change Capitol Doc Eyes Relocation

A doctor known for her expertise in helping transgender people is leaving the so-called sex-change capital of the world for the San Francisco Bay area.

Marci Bowers told KMGH News that she was planning on leaving her Trinidad, Colo., practice by October 1 to help more people and to unite with a first-year surgical resident in San Francisco with whom she is in a relationship.

Bowers has performed hundreds of surgeries in Trinidad since 2003. She took up the practice after Stanley Biber retired in 2003, after 34 years and thousands of gender-reassignment surgeries.
