The transgender patient in primary care. Issue 12 (December 2021) - Holden, Charles
The number of people who identify as transgender or non-binary in the UK is increasing. The RCGP has identified that many transgender patients' experience of healthcare is poor, and that general practitioners may lack experience in the assessment, referral and management of patients with gender dysphoria. This article seeks to cover the key topics in the general practice training curriculum relating to the care of transgender and non-binary adults to allow trainees to practice confidently, safely and compassionately within this field.
