Gender-Affirming HRT
Gender-affirming care should feel grounding, empowering, and even joyful.
We often talk about gender dysphoria, but not enough about the celebration that comes with feeling more at home in your body. I created Aurum Haven Medical to offer a space where gender-diverse people can explore hormone therapy with comfort, dignity, and genuine support — especially during the challenges of transition or “second puberty.”
As someone who has personally navigated medical trauma, I know how vulnerable medical spaces can feel. My goal is to make your care experience calm, collaborative, and centered on you. With an evidence-based approach informed by my training in Internal Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital in NYC and previous work as a clinician-educator at UCLA Health, you can trust that your treatment is both safe and deeply respectful of your personhood.
Aurum Haven Medical is currently self-pay by design. By removing insurance-driven barriers, I’m able to provide trauma-informed, relationship-centered care with the time, attention, and emotional presence you deserve.
