Gender Affirming Care and Resources

Accessing Health Care Services

The Student Health Service recognizes that navigating the system and accessing gender-affirming care may present challenges. The Health Service continues to try to grow and expand to offer the care and support our transgender and gender non-conforming patients need.

For general questions about gender-affirming care offered at the Student Health Service, please call the office at 847.491.8100 or e-mail Practice Manager, Joey Harmon at johanna.harmon@nm.org. To begin, continue, or discuss gender-affirming care please make an appointment with Ellen Nathanson, APRN, CNP.
