Majority of trans people avoid going to GP over transphobia fears

Pink News article on recent TransActual report:

“Ninety-seven per cent of the trans UK public reported dealing with GPs that have little or no knowledge on trans issues, while nearly three quarters have reported avoiding their GP over fears of discrimination.

Of those who had faced issues with their GPs, 60 per cent had been refused non-transition related care because of their gender identity.”

Yes (i.e. my experience too) to all three.
