January turned out to be a month full of great news: our free care fund reached out initial funding goal, we have a new provider, and we’re opening in new states. We’re so excited to share what’s happening at QueerDoc!
Free Care!
We announced a few months ago that we were fundraising to be able to provide scholarships for free and/or low-cost gender affirming care. We have reached our initial funding goal of $5,000 and have opened up applications for cost-supported care at QueerDoc. Thank you to TransFamily Support Services for hosting the donation page and to everyone who donated. With your help, we are able to break down some financial barriers to gender affirming health care.
Want to apply? Priority goes to applicants with multiple barriers to care.
Keep spreading the word! Donate here.
NEW PROVIDER!
Dr. Lin-Fan Wang has joined the QueerDoc team and will start seeing patients TODAY!!
We introduced Dr. Wang in an earlier blog. She, like our other clinicians, can provide a full suite of gender affirming health care via telehealth, including prescribing estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, SERMs, and androgen-blockers.
NEW STATES!
With Dr. Wang on board, we are opening up shop in Hawaii, Montana, Utah, and West Virginia. Dr. Wang can see patients in California, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. She is currently seeing adults and will soon be seeing youth in her practice.
Know of great affirming resources in Hawaii, Montana, Utah, or West Virginia? Let us know!
LOOKING FORWARD TO FEBRUARY!
We’re working on a series of blogs about movin’ your very fabulous queer and/or trans body in February and March. Do you have a favorite affirming exercise professional or space? Please tell us about them!
