I've been fortunate to know Annie personally and anyone who reads her story will never forget her! --Jeffrey Spiegel, MD, FACS The Spiegel Center, Newton, MA Dr. Anne Koch presents a compelling narrative of her later-in-life transition, skillfully weaving together experiences drawn from her professional and personal life. She adds an important voice to the literature on transgender health that will move health systems to continually improve care in this area. --Jenny Siegel, MD Medical Director of the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at Boston Medical Center It Never Goes Away is a riveting story about the gender transition journey of Dr. Anne Koch, a leading practitioner and educator in dental medicine. Her gentle but necessarily didactic story succeeds in unmasking the stigma faced so long by transgender people. The book shines light on one of the biggest problems in transgender medicine--that there is no continuity of care by many healthcare providers, with an exception of a few large gender centers and institutions. It Never Goes Away will become a core reading in educational programs at schools of medicine in the United States and Canada. --Lisa McBride Assistant Dean of Diversity and Inclusion, TCU and UNTHS School of Medicine
