A sexual health clinic in Truro, N.S., that offers health care to transgender people will continue to operate and might one day see an expansion of services. The Truro Sexual Health Centre operates one evening a week out of office space provided by the Nova Scotia Health Authority's local collaborative health centre. "It was a huge relief," said patient Katie Freeman, who accesses the clinic for transgender health care and hormone replacement therapy. Transgender health care is a large part of the clinic's services, and it also offers services like sexually transmitted disease testing and treatments, birth control, pregnancy counselling and pap smears. Dr. Hali Bauld is the founder of the Truro Sexual Health Centre.
