How do I find doctors who will be comfortable dealing with transsexualism?
You can start by contacting a transgender support group in your area. If there is no group nearby, you may want to consider talking to your family doctor or a doctor you know to be gay or lesbian. Even if a doctor is uncomfortable with the issue, or is unfamiliar with it, he or she may be able to refer you to someone who can help. All doctors are required to keep anything you say confidential, so you needn’t fear that your request will become public knowledge. If you wish to deal directly with a gender identity clinic, you will require a reference from a general practitioner, psychologist or psychiatrist in your area.
