We remain committed to providing an inclusive, welcoming environment in which members of the LGBTQIA+ community can seek care. 🌈 The new LGBTQIA+ Affirming Designation in our online provider directory is the next step in that effort.

The LGBTQIA+ Affirming Designation allows LGBTQIA+ people to search for, find, and book appointments with doctors who are affirming of their health care needs.

“The best way for UPMC to be a place that LGBTQ people can trust is by continuing to behave in ways that make us trustworthy,” says Joy Gero, PsyD, director, Population Health and Improvement, and program manager, LGBTQIA+ Health Quality, UPMC.

“I am incredibly proud about this step in our journey at UPMC,” Dr. Gero adds.
