COMING SOON: We will be changing our name to the GenderCare Center (GCC) at Boston Medical Center.
In 2016 BMC established the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery. With the unified structure, patients have a single point of contact for their care needs. We are the first center in New England to provide such a comprehensive program and we are a national leader in delivery of gender affirming care.
