Halifax Sexual Health Centre shared MSVUSU Pride Centre's post.

Halifax Sexual Health Centre

Check out this amazing resource coming up on the MSVU campus! ...

MSVUSU Pride Centre

The first TRANS/NON BINARY/QUESTIONING Clinic will be held on Friday, November 2 at the Health Office, Coastal Sports & Wellness Clinic on campus, Assisi 2nd floor from 9am till noon. This is a great opportunity for folks who identify, or are questioning these identities to meet with Maxine (Registered Nurse), Dr. Sherry Jain, Heather Patterson (WPATH trained psychologist) and mingle with other folks within the community in a safer medical space. I will be there to hang 🙂

You can book for any medical care from blood work to trans health specific care. To book an appointment to see Dr. Jain or Maxine, contact Maxine by phone: (902) 457-6353 or by email: maxine.brewer@msvu.ca, or please feel free to show up and check it out the day of and meet folks.

All Coastal services will be available that day too. Please note that if you can't make the clinic hours, you can absolutely contact Maxine and receive medical care outside of this clinic.

TRANS SPECIFIC HEALTH:
->Maxine has helped and will help anyone through the Gender Affirming Surgeries process from initial meetings to post opt care, changing your sex assignment/designation, hormone injections, etc.

->Maxine is the person to speak too if you have any suggestions or comments about the clinic. She is a great ally and someone that is open to learning and collaboration, the more input we have with the clinic the more folks will get the care and support that we need.

->Heather Patterson is WPATH trained which means she can write Readiness letters for hormones and surgeries for students. This is FREE and accessible through the Counselling Centre.

->If you are looking for an additional letter, you can use your STUDENT BENEFIT PLAN (Campus Trust) that has $500 for counselling. I was able to see Sara Lamb and had her write me 2 letters for 2 different surgeries and this was all covered under student benefits.

->There will be a LGBTQ2SIA+ resource list, snacks and friendly folks to hang with.

->There will be also be a few binders available.

Please spread the word~!
Hope to see you there, Bastian
