Gender Affirming Care in Portland, OR

Compassionate care that sees and supports the whole you.
 

At the heart of gender affirming care is one simple truth: you deserve to feel at home in your body. Whether you’re exploring gender, seeking hormone therapy, looking for a provider who respects your name and pronouns, or simply want someone who understands, you're welcome here.

This is gender-affirming care that centers you—your body, your story, and your wellbeing.

What Is Gender Affirming Care?

Gender affirming care includes medical and holistic support for people of all genders. It may include:

  • Hormone therapy (testosterone, estrogen, or blockers)

  • Menstrual suppression or cycle support

  • Primary care through a gender-affirming lens

  • Lab work and safety monitoring

  • Support for sexual and reproductive health

  • Trauma-informed physical exams

  • Guidance and referrals for surgery, therapy, or name/gender marker changes

This care is about so much more than transitioning. Whether or not hormones or surgeries are part of your plan, I’m here to support your overall wellness—physical, mental, and emotional.

Who I Work With

I work with trans men, trans women, nonbinary, gender expansive, and questioning individuals of all ages, including teens and young adults. I also support parents and families who want inclusive care for their kids and teens.

Some people come to see me for hormone therapy. Others come for digestive issues, fatigue, anxiety, or just to have a provider who respects them. Whatever brings you in, your care will be guided by respect, consent, and collaboration.

​How Gender Affirming Care Works With Dr. Andy Turner

As a naturopathic doctor, I offer both conventional and holistic medical care—from prescribing hormones to supporting general health concerns like sleep, energy, digestion, and immune resilience.

I’ll help you navigate referrals for gender-affirming therapists, surgeons, and other providers, making the process less overwhelming. 

In your visits, we'll talk about your whole life care from nutrition to sleep and body movement. I often incorporate herbal medicine to support wellness—like easing anxiety, managing stress, or improving menstrual health. If fertility is part of your journey — I've got you covered! 

No matter your goals, this is care that looks at the whole picture: your body, your mental health, your sense of belonging, and your capacity to thrive.
