Abstract:
Trust is a particularly important element in a healthcare relationship, but it is often misunderstood. In this article, we explore the trust relationship between patients and healthcare professionals and the expectations underpinning it. We then look at some of the expectations of trans* people in the context of medical consultations that are not related to medical transition. In this article, we present lines of thought from a qualitative research currently being analyzed and conducted by Iris Rivoire, Dr. Mira Fey, and Prof. Samia Hurst-Majno.
