Attitudes of HealthCare Providers
Positive aspects of
healthcare provider treatment —
Openness and respect in
general. Nice 'lil old nurses taking blood and
crossing out 'F' and putting 'M' on my bloodtest
paperwork because 'obviously you're a strapping
young lad'
Negative aspects of
healthcare provider treatment —
A story my GP told me
about an MTF that committed suicide
post-op…his only previous experience of
dealing with Trans* people.
