• Resumen

  • The health care demand for transgenders has increased in Chile and worldwide. However, in Chile health care professionals are not trained to understand and face this problem. We herein review issues that should be considered in the training of non-specialist physicians to provide health care to transgenders, issues about terminology of body reassignment treatments and gender identity and the way Chilean professionals should deal with transgender persons.
