Gender Matters: Insights from a Physician
How Homeland Security’s Policy Change Affects Transgender Patients
A recent change to Homeland Security policy has raised serious concerns for transgender individuals and their families. In this episode, we explore how the removal of gender identity from protected categories could impact privacy, safety, and trust—both in society and within medical spaces.
For healthcare providers, this shift isn’t just political—it directly affects patient relationships and the information patients feel safe disclosing. We’ll discuss what physicians need to know, how past policies have already harmed transgender patients, and what you can do to maintain trust in your practice.
