    Author: Hadland SE, Yehia BR, Makadon HJ.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 2016 Dec; 63(6):955-969. PubMed ID: 27865338.
    Abstract:
    Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) youth may experience interpersonal and structural stigma within the health care environment. This article begins by reviewing special considerations for the care of LGBTQ youth, then turns to systems-level principles underlying inclusive and affirming care. It then examines specific strategies that individual providers can use to provide more patient-centered care, and concludes with a discussion of how clinics and health systems can tailor clinical services to the needs of LGBTQ youth.
