Interdisciplinary clinicians' attitudes, challenges, and success strategies in providing care to transgender people: a qualitative descriptive study.
Transgender and gender-diverse people can face discriminatory behaviors when accessing health care services. This qualitative study explored clinician perspectives with regard to practicing transgender health care. Findings indicate that stigma, gatekeeping, and knowledge deficits are barriers to high-quality care delivery but respondents also highlighted strategies for successful care delivery, including mentorship and use of a person-centered approach to care.
