Personalized Care, For Everyone
Middlesex Health is committed to providing quality care for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer/Questioning+ members of our community in a safe, friendly and compassionate environment.

We have developed a comprehensive set of LGBTQIA+ clinical services across our health care continuum. Since 2017, we have been recognized by the Healthcare Equality Index as a LGBTQIA+ Healthcare Equality Leader.
