How Do Providers Get on the List?
The Hudson Valley LGBTQ Community Center (The LGBTQ Center) list of LGBTQ Affirming Health Care Providers is offered as a service to the community. Listing does not constitute endorsement by The LGBTQ Center or its Board of Directors or Staff. Health care providers on this list have been recommended by our members, and have also returned surveys indicating their desire to be included in our directory. Content of the listings is provided by and represented as accurate by the listed individuals and groups.
The LGBTQ Center also cannot guarantee a good fit between any given provider and any given client. Therefore, the website listings are not recommendations. Instead they are information on where to start looking, since these providers have asked to be listed as LGBTQ-friendly. Clients are advised to research their provider choice further by, for example, interviewing the provider, researching areas of specialization, experience, and malpractice claim history, and by performing other normal due diligence in selecting someone in whom to entrust their health care.
If you have a provider you would like to recommend, click here to open the form. If you would like to to relay comments about a provider currently on the list, email programs@lgbtqcenter.org
If you are a provider who wants to be included in this list, contact The LGBTQ Center by email at programs@lgbtqcenter.org, or by phone at 845.331.5300 with that request. Once you have provided proof of your licensure and filled out and returned a short application, we will be glad to include you in this list.
