Life with Gender Incongruence (The Edge) - a podcast by Nashville Podcast Network

from 2023-03-24T05:00

:: ::

Kelly and Chip welcome Dr. Hayden Shafer, an assistant professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center who provides care through the Program for LGBTQ Health, specializing in delivery of primary care and gender affirming treatments across the state. Dr. Shafer speaks from his medical experience working with patients dealing with gender incongruence and educates the duo on the multi- layered process that isn’t typically discussed in our culture. He gives examples and some shocking statics, using science and medicine to hopefully bring light to a community that many of us still know little about. This podcast is meant to shine light on gender incongruence, transgender people and their friends and families to better understand their battles, feelings and lifelong processes that are so often overlooked in media and politics.
