Services We Offer

Gender Affirming Hormone Prescriptions

We offer gender-affirming hormone prescriptions tailored to your specific needs. Indeed, our experienced medical providers work with you to create a hormone therapy plan that aligns with your gender identity and goals. Our goal is to help you achieve the physical changes that bring you comfort and happiness.

Lab Testing:

We conduct thorough lab tests to rule out potential underlying causes of depression or anxiety, such as thyroid disorders, vitamin deficiencies, or hormone imbalances. Consequently, we can ensure your treatment is targeted and effective.

Electrology and Vocal Coaching Referrals

In addition to hormone therapy and surgical referrals, we offer resources and support for other aspects of your gender-affirming journey. Our clinic provides access to professional electrology services to help with hair removal. We also offer vocal coaching referrals for individuals who wish to modify their voice to better align with their gender identity.

Our Commitment to Inclusivity

Informed Consent Model

We operate under an informed consent model, which means that we respect your autonomy and decision-making. Furthermore, you have the right to make choices about your gender-affirming care after receiving all the necessary information. We are here to provide guidance and information, but the final decisions about your healthcare are ultimately yours. Finally, we do not require any WPATH letters for hormone prescriptions.
