These clinicians have a special interest in TGD care.
There are many types of healthcare workers that can support trans and gender diverse people.
All GPs, sexual health physicians, and endocrinologists can prescribe gender affirming hormone therapy, however it can be difficult to find clinicians that provide this care. Visit AusPATH and TransHub to see their clinician lists.

Trans Affirming Clinicians
Trans affirming clinicians may not provide 'gender affirming' care (i.e. hormones or surgery), but they will provide their usual service in a 'trans affirming' way.
