Welcome to the Transgender Health Program at the University of Utah. We have worked hard to put together a comprehensive program to serve the healthcare needs of the transgender and gender diverse communities in our region and we are happy to work with you. 

Our team provides care across eight medical specialties, which allows for a coordinated and multi-disciplinary approach to your healthcare. All of our providers follow the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Standards of Care guidelines and have pursued additional continuing education to provide excellent and state of the art gender affirming care. Our providers are active in research related to transgender health and regularly present their findings regionally, nationally, and internationally. They are involved in the education of medical students and other health care professionals. Additionally, our team is dedicated to providing educational opportunities across the institution as well as to external healthcare facilities, to better care for trans and gender diverse patient populations. 

As a group, we are committed to providing comprehensive, compassionate care in a gender affirming environment where you can access all of your healthcare needs. We utilize a patient and community advisory board made up of transgender and gender diverse community members to inform and consult on how our program can better serve our patients as well as the broader communities. We make every effort to create a safe and supportive environment in all aspects of your healthcare journey. We encourage feedback and involvement from our patients to continue to improve our program. 

Thank you for your participation in our program. We are passionate about our mission and are committed to improving and advancing gender affirming healthcare in clinical, research, and educational spaces throughout our institution. 

Sincerely Yours, 

Cori Agarwal, MD
