🌈 September is Pride Month in Brisbane! It’s a time when the LGBTQIA+ community and their allies come together to celebrate, support, and advocate for equality and inclusion.

Former Uni mates and now RBWH Registrars, Dr Angus and Dr Dan have both worked in LGBTQIA+ healthcare and are passionate about creating safe access to care for this community.

Dr Angus says that some members of the LGBTQIA+ community may delay or avoid seeking healthcare due to previous negative experiences.

“Inclusive healthcare is much more than treating symptoms—it’s about creating a safe, non-judgemental environment where everyone’s identity is respected and understood,” he said.

“Building trust and safety encourages patients to seek timely care and feel comfortable sharing important health information.”

Dr Dan adds that the LGBTQIA+ community have unique needs that require tailored services.

“From gender-affirming care for transgender or non-binary individuals to providing comprehensive sexual health care relevant to LGBTQIA+ identities, the community has unique healthcare needs, and it’s important that providers understand their lived experiences,” he said.

Drawing on their career experience, Dr Angus and Dr Dan are currently supporting RBWH’s Infections Diseases Department to provide safe and inclusive care for all. ... See MoreSee Less
