Inclusive healthcare for everyone
With dedicated health resources and caring, compassionate providers, Wellstar is making primary care more accessible to people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer/questioning (LGBTQ+). Historically, many healthcare systems have not focused on the specific needs of the LGBTQ+ community. Wellstar believes every person should have access to safe, high-quality healthcare. At each of our primary care locations, we maintain a welcoming, non-judgmental environment to treat patients. Across Wellstar, we’re committed to providing inclusive medical services in a safe, comfortable space to make LGBTQ+ care more available.Dedicated health experts for the LGBTQ+ community
Members of the LGBTQ+ community may be at a higher risk for certain medical issues. For example, lesbian and bisexual women may be at increased risk for breast, cervical and ovarian cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. According to the American Psychiatric Association, LGBTQ+ people are also more likely to experience mental health concerns and use mental health services. Treating these health concerns starts with trained providers who take a caring, compassionate approach to help patients stay healthy. Wellstar provides primary care for the LGBTQ+ community, including wellness exams, chronic disease management, virtual appointments and other health screenings. We also offer special services for people who identify as LGBTQ+ including:- Family planning and birth control
