Letters for gender-affirming medical care

Start with your provider’s requirements

Requirements can differ by provider, procedure, and insurer. At the consult, we’ll discuss what has been requested and whether my credentials and assessment can meet that requirement.

If you have written requirements, let me know. We can arrange an appropriate way to share them before deciding how to proceed.

What the process involves

1. A free consult

   We clarify the request, discuss the process, and decide whether this service is a fit.

2. An assessment

   We discuss your goals, relevant history, understanding of the care you’re seeking, and support needs.

3. Documentation and next steps

   If a letter is appropriate, we discuss its content and how it will reach the intended provider.

The assessment is individualized. The number of sessions and whether a letter can be provided depend on your circumstances and the applicable requirements.

My approach

I work from an informed-consent stance and prepare letters in line with WPATH Standards of Care version 8. The assessment takes your identity seriously and focuses on the relevant clinical and documentation requirements.

A provider or insurer makes its own acceptance decision. I cannot guarantee acceptance, but we can clarify requirements and questions before you proceed.

Who this service is for

Adults who are physically located in Pennsylvania during assessment sessions and seeking documentation for gender-affirming medical care. We’ll confirm the specific request at the consult.

Fees and timing

At the free consult, we’ll discuss the assessment fee, what it includes, and the expected turnaround for your request. We’ll confirm these details before you schedule an assessment.
