A gender clinic in Austin, Texas has stirred controversy for allegedly performing hundreds of unconventional, experimental and dangerous genital surgeries.
The Crane Center for Transgender Surgery, often dubbed the “Frankenstein’s Lab,” is headed by Director Curtis Crane, referred to by many as a “crazy butcher.” Crane’s clinic is one of the few in the area proficient enough to provide plastic surgery and urology services, with a specialization in transgender surgery and reconstructive urology.
According to the official website of the clinic, the Crane Center has been offering a range of procedures for patients identifying as transgender or nonbinary since 2012.
For biological males who wish to retain their penis while also getting a vagina, the clinic offers phallus-preserving vaginoplasty. Conversely, a vaginal-preserving phalloplasty constructs a penis without removing the existing vagina for biological females. Both procedures create a vaginal opening just beneath the penis shaft.

Meanwhile, nullification surgery, also known as “Barbie dolling,” involves the complete removal of the external genitalia to create a smooth transition from the abdomen to the groin. Penile splitting, a less common procedure for aesthetic or pleasure purposes, on the other hand, involves either for aesthetic reasons or to increase sexual pleasure. Options range from splitting the entire length of the penis to only the tip or head, or splitting it in half along the shaft while leaving the head and base intact.
The clinic has nearly a dozen practitioners across its sites, carrying out more than 200 top surgeries and 150 vaginoplasties annually. The prices for these procedures range from $10,000 to $70,000, depending on their complexity.
However, critics, including Steve O’Malley, the director of Genspect, an advocacy group focused on gender issues, condemned such procedures as unnecessary and harmful.
“Surgical interventions for non-binary identities are not necessary and arguably cause more harm than good. Extreme body modifications such as nullification should not be carried out merely because the patient wants it. Surgeons should not be viewed as shopkeepers who can dispense whatever the customer wants. They are doctors and they should be bound by the principle to first do no harm,” he explained.
Jay Richards, a fellow at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank, also argued that their practices are just the epitome of the “sheer madness of gender ideology.”
“It’s tempting to compare clinics engaged in these ghoulish procedures to Frankenstein’s lab. But that would be uncharitable to Dr. Frankenstein. Non-binary and nullification surgeries reveal the sheer madness of gender ideology. It started with surgeries to make males look like females, and vice versa. But it doesn’t end there, because the ideology’s definition of “gender identity” is completely untethered from our sexed bodies. It reduces the human person to a mere internal sense of gender, which has no limiting principle and so can mean anything,” Richards explained.
One of Crane’s former clients Scott Newgent, a transgender activist turned opponent of childhood transitioning, has come forward with a harrowing personal account of his experiences during surgical operations at Crane Center.
In an interview, Newgent detailed a litany of medical complications and personal losses he attributes to his transition surgeries performed by Crane. He recounted a collection of health issues, including pulmonary embolism, sepsis, recurring infections and psychological trauma, all stemming from the so-called gender-affirming surgeries. Newgent claimed to have incurred nearly a million dollars in medical expenses and lost his home, career and family, all as a consequence of the procedures.
“During the process of medical transition, I have had seven surgeries, one massive pulmonary embolism, one helicopter life-flight ride, an emergency ambulance ride, induced stress heart attack, sepsis, 17-month recurring infection due to using the wrong skin during a phalloplasty, 16 rounds of antibiotics, three weeks of daily IV antibiotics, lost all my hair, arm reconstructive surgery, handicapped arm, permanent lung, and heart damage.
“My bladder was cut, I had insomnia-induced hallucinations, frequent loss of consciousness due to pain from the six inches of hair on the inside of my urethra, significant PTSD that made me a prisoner in my apartment for a year not able, failed phalloplasty, billed $923,980 for medical expenses, I lost my home, car, job, career, wife, and I could no longer care for my kids due to medical complications,” Newgent detailed in a 2020 interview.
Moreover, Newgent considered filing legal action against Crane but multiple attorneys declined to pursue his case.
“I went to eight different attorneys about that surgeon,” he said. “Each wanted to take on my case, but after they investigated, they found out there is no baseline for care. We have nothing to compare outcomes for medical transition, so it’s a free-for-all, and the medical industry knows this.”
