UCHealth Integrated Transgender Program (UCH ITP)
Founded in September 2017
We provide extraordinary whole-person care for transgender and gender diverse adults
Our mission is providing integrated, collaborative clinical care, to advance research, to educate others, and to engage with the community
Program Highlights
We are one of the only adult programs in the country where patients can see multiple providers as part of the same visit in the same clinic. This makes it easier for the patient and allows providers to communicate plans in real time for optimal coordination of care. We also provide care in a gender neutral space to ensure patient comfort.

Team Testimonials
It is important to develop studies with the community that represent the transgender and gender diverse populations we have in Colorado. Our results will inform future research, contribute to advancements in gender-affirming care, and promote shared decision making between patients and providers that is evidence-based.

MDThe Community Advisory Board solicits valuable insights from the community to guide program growth and direction. Direct feedback from the LGBTQ community ensures our program and services are aligned with community needs. Post-visit feedback assists in process optimization, organizational improvement, and visibility where change is needed.
