LGBTQIA+ Specialized Primary Care

What is LGBTQIA+ Specialized Primary Care?

At CrofootMD, we practice healthcare with a specialized focus to meet the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other gender and/or sexual minority individuals.

Our providers and healthcare team aim to address unique health concerns, challenges, and disparities faced by LGBTQIA+ people ensuring they receive culturally competent, respectful, and inclusive care.

“In 1985, Dr. Crofoot helped establish Houston’s first healthcare community-based organization that focused on HIV called the Montrose Clinic (better known today as Legacy Community Health).”
