We take pride in providing compassionate care

We’re challenging the one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare by getting to know our patients as people rather than numbers in a system. For the LGBTQIA+ community, that means understanding the unique health challenges you face — like how LGBTQIA+ people are less likely to seek out medical care. Or, how queer youth are more likely to be bullied, leaving major mental and emotional scars.

At Tufts Medicine, you'll always feel welcome here with care, services and support designed with you in mind.
