Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex Healthcare

Written by experienced clinicians and edited by Vanderbilt Program for LGBTI Health faculty, this book contains up-to-date expertise from physicians renowned for their work in LGBTI health. This important text fills an informational void about the practical health needs of LGBTI patients in both the primary care and specialty settings remains, and serves as a guide for LGBTI preventative and specialty medicine that can be utilized within undergraduate medical education, residency training, and medical practice. Beginning with a short review of LGBTI populations and health disparities, it largely focuses on the application and implementation of LGBTI best practices within all realms of medical care. In addition, the book offers recommendations for the integration of LGBTI health into systems-based practice by addressing intake forms and electronic health records, as well as evidence-based emerging concerns in LGBTI health.

This is a must-have volume for medical students, residents, and practicing physicians from all medical specialties.
