Here at Access Health Louisiana, we are dedicated to providing the best possible care to our trans and gender non-conforming (GNC) youth patients. Due to Louisiana Act 466, our pediatric providers are barred from providing gender affirming hormone replacement therapy to any patients under the age of 18. If you are currently receiving hormone replacement therapy and are under the age of 18, your provider will discuss the next steps with you at your upcoming appointment. We will continue to offer culturally competent behavioral health, primary care, screening and treatment, preventative health, and dental services to our trans and GNC youth patients. If you have questions or concerns about your care, please call (504) 226-2976. We understand how challenging this time is and we will continue to advocate for the rights of all individuals to receive comprehensive, inclusive, and compassionate healthcare.
Access Health Louisiana is dedicated to providing the best health care and a safe environment to all of our patients regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

At Access Health Louisiana, we strive to provide a welcoming environment that promotes services that are culturally competent, culturally humble, and provide an overall safe space to the communities that we serve. Through our Sexual Health Services programs, patients are able to receive high quality HIV and STI testing, treatment, and linkage to clinical services and referrals.
Access to quality health care and multilevel approaches to care have often been a challenge for transgender individuals.
