There was a standard medical history form that I had to fill out, and the social worker asked about any history of mental illness,<br />

relationships, whether I was out to anyone; questions like that.<br />

� Allowed me to start HRT without a therapist's letter after signing an informed consent form.<br />

� He's also a really cool doctor, very easy going and helpful.<br />

� I'm not sure exactly how much experience he has with trans patients, or who he is willing to prescribe. I<br />

am MtF. So far I've had no complications in my 5 months of being on HRT.<br />

� While I didn't have a therapist's letter, I did see a therapist (on and off) for a year and he spoke to my<br />

therapist before giving me the informed consent form. I don't know if you would be able to simply call<br />

him up and ask for HRT, but it's worth a try.<br />

� that I think operates on informed consent<br />

� I've never been there, but my therapist suggested I go there if I wanted to get on HRT ASAP. They require<br />

you to make an appointment, and there is a waiting list to get in.I think they operate on IC because that is<br />

where my doctor got the IC form.<br />

� I know a woman who goes to Fan Free Clinic, actually! She lives in Maryland but is from Richmond, and<br />

she says they're awesome. She kinda has some money know so she gives them lots of cash per visit, but I<br />

can vouch for them by proxy. Not that useful, but I figured I'd second such an awesomely helpful post.<br />

� The Fan Free Clinic does operate on informed consent AFAIK, but they only service limited income<br />

patients. Unfortunately, I make too much money, or I'd have gone there since it's more convenient than<br />

the whitman walker clinic in DC. I know someone who does use it and she has nothing but praise, and<br />

Whitman walker is great, too!<br />
