Our goal is provide transgender and non-binary patients with gender-affirming services that are evidence-based care with an individualized approach to meet your personal goals and needs. Virginia Mason is proud to provide skilled and compassionate health care services with our multidisciplinary team in a welcome and supportive environment.
We respect how individualized and private gender transition is and that many patients have questions about approaches or the elements of gender transition. Our team utilizes the World Professional Association for Transgender Health Guidelines (WPATH) as well as clinical guidelines within each specialty to work together to help achieve optimal health and well-being for our patients.
We also consult the Bree Collaborative and Healthcare Equity Index to help identify ways to continue to improve the quality of healthcare we deliver.
In 2019 Virginia Mason was designated as a Leader in 2019 LGBTQ Healthcare Equality Index, scoring a top score of 100 in the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC) survey.
