Abstract:
Dermatologists can play a key role in improving health equity for sexual and gender diverse (SGD) patients through cultivating awareness of how their patients' sexual and gender identity may affect their skin health, developing SGD-inclusive curricula and safe spaces in medical training, promoting workforce diversity, practicing with intersectionality in mind, and engaging in advocacy for their patients, whether it be through daily practice, legislative and public policy initiatives, or research.
