“What I love most about working at FOLX are the members. I feel lucky that I get a chance to talk to you every single day. [And] the colleagues that I work with bring experience, they bring knowledge, they’re compassionate, and they’re activists. They really want to make sure that we are able to provide the best care for the people that we care for.”
“One of the things we’re really good at at FOLX is access. Most of our community has been through the ringer with healthcare so we are not interested in gatekeeping. I am really interested in the level of intimacy and honesty that goes on between a provider and their patient.”
"Working at FOLX has been the best experience I could have asked for as a provider. Our members are incredible and to witness their transformations, not just physically, but to see them blossom into who they are is an honor I don’t take lightly. We have a true collaborative environment, both for clinicians and members; the way we practice medicine is a model for what all healthcare should look like."
"Having been a mental health provider in the trans and queer communities for almost a decade, I can confidently say that FOLX is an anomaly in the best possible way. To have an entire team made up of not just affirming clinicians, but expert affirming clinicians, is truly rare. Members don’t have to worry about being judged by their providers or have to educate them; this foundation of safety and trust allows for better care overall and a humanizing experience that can often be missed elsewhere."
Made up of medical doctors (MDs), doctors of osteopathy (DOs), nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and certified nurse midwives (CNMs), all of whom specialize in LGBTQIA+ care.
Our registered nurses (RNs) and medical assistants (MAs) help answer your clinical questions, lead injection trainings, work with labs, and pharmacies to ensure your care is smooth.
We support all your needs and refer you to additional resources, such as locating the nearest lab or understanding how to use your insurance at FOLX.
"I was matched with a wonderful doctor that answered all my questions and made me feel well cared for. It was so much easier than I was expecting too."
"Folx has changed my life. With its simplicity matched well with caring staff, you can't go wrong."
