About me

Dr. Dugi specializes in reconstructive surgery for problems of the urinary and genital system. He has advanced training in the treatment of urethral and ureteral strictures, as well as complex problems such as buried penis, adult complications of hypospadias, genital lymphedema, and recto-urethral fistula.

In 2016, Dr. Dugi began to focus on gender-affirming genital surgery for people across the gender spectrum. He offers gender-affirming vaginoplasty and vulvoplasty, orchiectomy, and metoidioplasty, as well as revision surgeries. He also offers care for complications of these and other genital surgeries done elsewhere.

In addition to surgical care, Dr Dugi was co-founder of OHSU's Transgender Health Program in 2012.  He is the program’s Director of Surgical Services, one of the most comprehensive and highest volume gender programs in the nation. He is the Fellowship director for OHSU’s Gender-affirming and Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgery fellowship. He is active in advocacy, education, and research.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
