About Dr Etcheverry

Surgical precision with compassionate care

Dr Begoña Etcheverry is a urologist specialising in urogenital reconstruction, robotic surgery and gender-affirming surgery.

She undertook advanced training in robotic reconstructive surgery at NYU Langone in New York and combines hospital-based expertise, research and a multidisciplinary approach. In gender-affirming surgery, she brings together functional, reconstructive and aesthetic goals. The most aesthetically pleasing outcome is not always the best clinical result; if surgery improves a patient’s function and quality of life, it is a success.
