shared care

Shared Care agreements are agreements made between private Gender specialists in the UK and your GP.

For trans related healthcare this is most often used whilst patients are on the NHS Gender Identity Clinic waiting list.

Although current legislation by the General Medical Council (GMC) states that Shared Care is something a GP should agree to its useful to find a local trans friendly GP by talking to your community, as some GPs can still be reluctant to help due to lack of experience with transgender patients. This video outlines what shared care is.
