[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking for a health care system for gender questioning young person (will be 18 in July) that can provide access to support groups and a group of doctors, including a psychiatrist with this specialty. Would prefer a more conservative/cautious approach to help them understand their dysphoria, receive support, and investigate options. I say that as opposed to a place that would recommend hormones right out of the gate. (Hormones may be the eventual route, we all just want to proceed with caution.) Our kid has been in therapy for a few years and now requested to talk to more medical professionals with a gender specialty.

We're moving to DC or MD this summer from a top 3 metro. The children's hospital here has a gender clinic that serves up to age 24, and I am wondering if there is something similar in/around DC. We have not started care here due to the fact that we're moving.

Thank you in advance for any information. [/quote]

Sorry but DMV practitioners, in the main, are not conservative/cautious. Not at all.  [/quote]
