Transgender Health FAQs with Bill Schaefer, P.A.

We sat down and talked with Bill Schaefer about transgender health care.

  • There are an estimated 1.6 million transgender people in the U.S., so you are not alone! Gender identity is how individuals perceive themselves and what they call themselves; one's gender identify can be the same or different from their sex assigned at birth. If you would like to talk to someone about gender affirming care, please call Trillium Health at 585.545.7200. Our friendly and welcoming staff will set up an intake appointment to get to know your goals and answer any questions that you might have. Whether you're just curious about microdosing, looking to have top surgery, or beginning your gender transition journey, we can help. We can also set you up with mental health services if appropriate.

  • Our entire staff is trained in best practices, which include using the patient’s correct pronouns, preferred gender identity, and name throughout their visit. At Trillium Health, we also offer our transgender patients primary care, PrEP, testing, and care management - treating our patients' social, emotional, and physical health. We serve all patients regardless of their ability to pay, and we offer discounts for services based on family size and income.

We are an informed consent clinic for hormone therapy, which means we take the time to educate you about your options regarding transition and the specifics of treatment. Together, we’ll create a plan that aligns with your transition-related goals.
