MORE INFO ABOUT LYON-MARTIN: Founded in 1979 and named in recognition of LGBTQ civil rights activists, Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin, a group of medical providers and health activists created this clinic to respond to the gap in sensitive health services available to lesbians. Since 1993, Lyon-Martin also has been the safety-net health care provider for very low-income and uninsured women and transgender people in San Francisco. Currently, 84 percent of our patients are uninsured. Our primary care services include: • Breast Health Screening, referral and follow-up • Routine Physical Examinations • Gynecological Care, HIV & STD Testing, and Family Planning • Fertility information and referral • Internal Medicine • Preventive Health care and Health education • Hormone Therapy for Transition (FTM or MTF) • Employment Physicals • Vaccination and Immunizations “Without its services, 2006 would have seen four more people with cancer continuing to progress, five more people with HIV infection lingering undiagnosed, thirty-five more people with diabetes remaining poorly managed, six hundred more transgender people buying and injecting hormones on the street, 1,500 more people missing cervical cancer screening,” – excerpt from an article written recently by our Executive Director and Medical Director Dawn Harbatkin, MD. And don’t forget to check-out our website at www.lyon-martin.org. Clinical Assistants must be over 18, and willing to contribute at least 3 hours a week for 6 months minimum.
