Gender-Affirming Primary Care in Fairlawn & Akron
Primary Care That Respects Your Identity and Your Health
Primary care is about more than treating illness—it's about being seen, heard, and supported as a whole person.
At Monarch Ideal Care, we provide gender-affirming primary care for transgender and gender-diverse adults in a setting that prioritizes respect, clarity, and medical integrity.
Our role as a primary care practice is to support your overall health, not just one aspect of your identity.
What Gender-Affirming Primary Care Includes
Gender-affirming primary care may include:
Preventive care and annual physical exams
Chronic condition management (blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid, etc)
Mental health screening and support within primary care
Sexual and reproductive health counseling
Medication management and monitoring
Coordination of care related to transition-associated health services
We focus on continuity, safety, and long-term health, recognizing that medical needs evolve over time.
Relationship to Hormone Therapy
Hormone therapy is one component of care for some transgender patients—but not all.
Gender-affirming hormone therapy is addressed through primary care evaluation and ongoing management
Decisions are individualized and guided by medical history, goals, and safety considerations
We coordinate care thoughtfully and discuss options clearly
If hormone therapy is part of your care plan, it is managed within the broader context of your overall health—not in isolation.
Our Care Philosophy
We believe affirming care means:
Listening without assumptions
Explaining options clearly
Respecting autonomy and informed decision-making
Prioritizing safety and long-term well being
Primary care should feel stable, supportive, and collaborative—especially when navigating complex or evolving healthcare needs.
