The Equality Clinic

Located at Bella Vista Health Center in the Bronx, The Equality Clinic provides dedicated services to LGBTQIA+ patients which include primary care, sexual health care, HIV care, gender-affirming services, PrEP and PEP and social and behavioral health services.

Historically, LGBTQIA+ communities are less likely to be connected to health services. In addition, patients who are transgender & gender non-conforming are more likely to report stigma, harassment, and discrimination from health care workers and within health settings. While addressing unique and critical healthcare needs, The Equality Clinic provides a stigma-free space where UHP patients can thrive.

PrEP & PEP

PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) and STI (sexually transmitted infections) services: Available at all UHP locations.

PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) for emergency HIV exposure: Available at all UHP locations.

If you were recently exposed to HIV, please seek immediate medical attention.
