Gender Affirming Care
The Brandeis Student Health Center staff and providers view gender inclusivity as a core competency and have fully integrated the care of transgender patients into our practice model.
For students 18 and over, we provide the full spectrum of primary care, hormone regimens, as well as pre- and post-operative care for surgical procedures with corresponding monitoring.
