Visiting the doctor is part of everyday life: we all need to see a GP from time to time. But a number of reports have suggested that for transgender individuals this can sometimes be a difficult experience. For some it is because of concerns they have about discussing their trans-health needs, for others it is facing insensitivity by doctors towards their gender identity, while some have experienced questions from doctors about their gender when wishing to discuss something unrelated.
We are interested in talking to transgender people about their experiences of GP care, whether positive or negative. Does it meet your needs? Or have you found seeking healthcare an uncomfortable experience?
