ABOUT US
Who we are and how we work to support the trans community.
GenderGP is an online health and wellbeing clinic which proudly serves transgender people of all ages across the world – and those who support them.
The organisation works tirelessly to promote excellence in trans healthcare, campaigning for improved access and understanding at all levels, in line with international best practice.
GenderGPÂ works with a highly skilled, multi-disciplinary team consisting of doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants, counsellors, therapists and psychologists. All healthcare professionals working with GenderGP are carefully selected for their knowledge, skills and attitude in the field of gender-related healthcare. Each specialist is regulated to provide care in accordance with their professional standards.
The organisation’s multidisciplinary team is fully equipped to deal with the care of trans and gender non-conforming patients of all ages. As there is no recognised training or qualification in this field, all learning is by personal professional development. GenderGP and its doctors follow the peer-reviewed, published International Guidance from the WPATH, The Endocrine Society, The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Australia.
GenderGP is a global organisation working with professionals from around the world. All members of GenderGP’s multidisciplinary team have the necessary registration, indemnity and qualifications to suit their role. They are regulated in their own country, for each of the activities they carry out. There is no specific training requirement to practice in this area, and no GMC register or GPSI qualification.
In order to make healthcare as affordable as possible, and to provide the widest range of options to its users, GenderGP works both as an independent service and collaboratively with the patient’s doctor.
Patients can choose whether to have blood tests privately or through their doctor. Medication can also be prescribed by their family doctor, via a collaboration agreement, or via a private prescription. Our approach is in accordance with government guidance issued on the subject.
Prescriptions can be dispensed by the individual’s local pharmacy or using an online pharmacy, all pharmacies recommended by GenderGP are operating entirely within the required regulations of their country.
The organisation uses telemedicine and remote consulting to allow people to access it’s services from their own home, thus breaking down political, geographical and socio-economic barriers that are faced by this patient group.
GenderGP is owned by Singapore based GenderGP PTE Ltd, a global organisation which provides advocacy services for LGBTQI+ people around the world.
GenderGP provides advocacy, support, advice, healthcare and access to a range of complementary services, which enable trans people to live their lives more easily.
In recent years, understanding around what it means to be trans has increased significantly. This has led to many more people stepping forward and asking for help with their social, medical and legal transition.
At the same time we have seen a shift in people’s acceptance, as more and more people’s lives are touched by someone who is trans and the desire to help begins to bring about positive change.
Our vision is a world where people can embrace their gender identity, free from discrimination and prejudice: our website is part of the solution.
Whether you are trans yourself, or supporting someone who is, we are delighted to welcome you to the GenderGP community.
