How Our Service Works

Make an Enquiry

If you are interesting in receiving hormone therapy, are after guidance or you just have questions please
leave an enquiry and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Retrieve A Referral From A Gender Psychologist/ Psychiatrist

Once you complete step 1 we can provide you with a list of available clinicians for you to contact and arrange your appointment. It will be your decision to choose which gender psychologist / psychiatrist you would like to see. Please arrange this appointment directly with the gender psychologist / psychiatrist.

Initial Video Appointment

Once your referral has been received by our team, you will be on the waitlist to be contacted to book an initial video appointment. During this appointment your nurse will go through your medical history and talk you through the initial stages of your hormone care. This is where you will have a chance to ask any clinical questions about your care and discuss your goals for hormone therapy.

Typically your nurse will then book you your face to face physical examination, during which your treatment plan will be established.

Complete and Return Your Medical Forms

Once we have booked face to face appointment, we will send you several essential forms to read and sign. Please read these carefully, sign, and return to us as soon as possible. Any delays may unfortunately result in rescheduling your appointment to a later date.

Please remember to organise your blood tests now if you have not already done so. For the full list of blood tests visit our page here. Once your initial in clinic appointment is booked, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to a digital blood results form. This is where you will be able to upload a copy of your results straight onto your record.

In Clinic Appointment

All there is left to do now is attend your in clinic appointment!

Your in clinic appointment will take place at our consultation rooms in Fitzrovia Hospital where, if no contra-indications are identified, you will be provided with a prescription to commence hormone therapy.

I have been with the Gender Hormone Clinic (formerly London Transgender Clinic) since 2020. The have provided me with professional and affirmative care over the last 3 years. They have always been friendly and supportive with every interaction and appointment over this time. They have made the medical aspects of my Gender Transition smooth and uncomplicated. They have provided me with the information I need to make completely informed decisions regarding my health care. The have worked closely with my local GP with a shared care agreement. Together they are providing me with both excellent Transgender and Primary health care. I have every confidence this will continue for the rest of my life. Thank you. Elsa (She/Her)

I've only had good experiences, with them being both kind and professional. They seem to genuinely care for by wellbeing, and have even given me an emergency presctiption when things have gone awry with my GP. They are understanding about the difficulties of being trans in the UK

A really compassionate and hard working team who made my gender transition possible. If I'm happier than I used to be it is also because of them. I am slowly getting back my will to live. Special thanks to my dedicated doctress Amanda for her hard work and dedication towards me.

I have been in contact with the LTC for a few months now, and they have been fantastic in understandable and clear, quick and (my personal favourite) friendly, polite communication. They've put me on my path to hormones in a respectful and affirming manner, which is exactly what one looks for in a good clinic like this. I'm glad my friend recommended them to me, and would absolutely do the same again, looking forward to my upcoming HRT start-date, and have nothing but thanks for the staff there, from the receptionists to the nurses and admin team.

What can I say? This wonderful, thoughtful, patient centric haven is quite possibly one of my favourite places on earth. Mary Burke is an incredible clinician who really involves herself. The dedication, excellence of care, setting and most importantly respect and unconditional positive regard is really important to our community and this IS one of those places. Mary is approachable, open and to be quite honest a right giggle! I haven’t laughed so much at any “drs” appointment ever. This wonderful Nurse has changed my life in such a positive and meaningful way that even before the consultation had ended. I knew I had the right partner at my side to me help me through my medical transition. I am forever grateful to Mary and the team at GHC. Of course this review will also be on Google, revoo and any other platform I can find so I can help direct my community to an actual source of help, support, acceptance and care. Just remember!!! Bloods before you turn up everytime! Think of it as law!

“Our aim is to provide patient centred, affirmative trans healthcare to patients of any gender.
