Mary Burke is the director of clinical services and senior nurse prescriber at The London Transgender Clinic.

Mary works alongside a varied multidisciplinary team that includes gender specialist psychiatrists, psychologists and endocrinologists to provide a comprehensive, compassionate and supportive care package for all our transgender and non-binary patients from the first consult, through to hormone therapy and surgery. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• Hormone therapy and who it is suitable for
• Patient vulnerabilities
• First steps in hormone therapy
• Side-effects with treatment
• Considerations for transgender health

The London Transgender Clinic provides transgender and non-binary individuals with guidance and support for safe and effective care, maximising their health, psycho-social well-being, and self-fulfilment, achieving lasting personal contentment with their gendered selves. This support may include primary care, reproductive options, voice and communication therapy, mental health services (assessment, counselling, psychotherapy), and hormonal and surgical treatments.
