3. Gender Affirming Care Series Part 1 - Healthcare experiences of trans and gender diverse people

In the first episode of this special multi-part series on Gender Affirming Care, I chatted with 3 special guests who are advocates for inclusive trans care. Rae, Lucas, and Dr. Thompson all bring their own experiences and perspectives in how medical trainees can engender (pun intended) change in medical education with respective to gender affirming care.
