About
Dr. Lydia Fein
Obstetrician, gynecologist, and assistant professor and director, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Florida, US
“Whether through my research or my role as an educator, obstetrician, and gynecologist, I am constantly striving to improve the quality of care for LGBTQA+ patients. We all deserve to feel well in our bodies, and through my work, I aim to ensure that more gender-diverse people get the gender-affirming health care they need and deserve.”
Areas of expertise
- Obstetrics and gynecology
- Transgender health and hormone therapy
- Gender-affirming medicine and surgery
“My choice to work in the realm of transgender health was based on a passion I developed while still a medical student. At the time, this field was vastly uncharted territory, but I was fortunate to have mentors who opened my eyes to the much-needed care these patients deserved but often did not receive. From that point forward, I devoted my career to providing care to gender-diverse patients and advancing the field of gender-affirming health.”
