@BluffKingHal @DrMariekedOuden @RoeliendenOuden @HJoyceGender It's beyond embarrassing (https://t.co/aFjaQ5QGCX), and it's time we left these relics to the past. LGBTQ folk already face many obstacles navigating our health systems, as patients/consumers (h

@The2023Edition @CriticalCupcake @peskygenz @jk_rowling LGBTQ folk in general (https://t.co/ohEb9M8EFq) often struggle in these systems, which aren't always well-equipped to to meet their needs. This occurs at the consumer and carer end, but even in practi

@BVSHS_Bex What Bex describes isn't unusual—it's one of many challenges that LGBTQ folk can encounter in care settings (https://t.co/ohEb9M8EFq). And as they say, it has consequences for how we navigate these systems to obtain the care we need.

@KatyMontgomerie @__InTheLoop Yeah, this is about present-day efforts trying to return practice to a default of pathologising queer lives like they have done in the past and, in many places, continue to do. https://t.co/lriMSjabDt
@adulthumanorbit @Zombie_Jesus_1 @Vibing_Valerie @NaturalWFSHME under-resourced services struggling to meet the needs of LGBTQ patients/clients or systems that were just never set up with LGBTQ folk in mind (https://t.co/mqBARzBF3i, https://t.co/ngDU11t0Js
@DrChronicler @conkin_io @Rhenaiya No, sadly there are still clinicians who are homophobic, transphobic, etc. That's part of the reason why we see disparities in the care that LGBTQ folk receive: https://t.co/UfdSpJXEH2
@better_in_dubly @mbp_phillips @Dahlia_Divaa @Isla_macy @eyre_ann The dignity of patients *is* important. Treating it as unimportant is one of the reasons we get disparities in care for LGBTQ patients https://t.co/lriMSjabDt
@psephophile @Tiff_Weather @SVPhillimore no, because what I'm saying is reflected in the relevant lit (e.g., https://t.co/mqBARzBF3i). Some similar issues arise in the clinical training context as well (e.g., https://t.co/ngDU11t0Js), although the challeng
@CherylKerkin @say_hi_to_lucy @piffavuri @MForstater I don't get your question. Like, on the one hand, it comes across as silly; healthcare is healthcare. But on the other, maybe there's certain aspects of how professions relevant to care think, or the sys

@CuriousnTT @PrimalHex There's already literature on the challenges that LGBTIQ folk face in accessing health services and the implications of that (https://t.co/mqBARzBF3i, https://t.co/yu0PpUcyNu), as well as work on how stigma relates to health outcomes
As for other psychologists (or other clinical professionals) raising these issues, they have—you can find examples in the literature (https://t.co/dvmVTfX76A).

Hi, I’m Beverly, she/her, cancer survivor & MD, living in Texas. I’m not surprised at this. I’ve witnessed other members of the care team be disrespectful/dismissive of SGM patients that I’m caring for in the hospital. Ex: deadnaming #CSSMChat
