The Gender Identity Clinic is running a limited service in view of the Covid-19 outbreak.
We will not be able to offer face to face appointments at the present time. If you currently have an appointment booked, a member of our appointments team will contact you to discuss if it is possible to carry out your appointment over the phone, or if necessary, to reschedule.
Unfortunately, we will not be able to sign off for Hormones or refer patients to Surgery over the phone, these appointment types will be rescheduled as a priority as soon as face to face appointments resume.
If you wish to cancel your upcoming appointment, you will not be penalised and you will be rescheduled as soon as normal clinical activities resume
We are also able to respond to your queries relating to referrals, appointments, hormones or any other queries, by emailing the clinic on the addresses below:
