“I have been obtaining my feminizing hormone replacement through True U for 6 months now. The service is very convenient and the care I received from Dr. Ashley has been caring and thorough. All I have to pay out of pocket is the visit costs, otherwise they allow me to use my insurance for the medications and labs. It is very cost effective for me. Thank you so much for offering this service to the community!”

Lexy

“I cannot even begin to describe how grateful I am to the folx at this clinic. From day 1 I have been treated with immense compassion, kindness, and care. More importantly, I feel listened to! Beginning my journey, I felt so scared, nervous, and I honestly wanted to cry from stress. Working with Natalie at True U Clinic has been some of the best and most considerate treatment I have ever had from any medical clinic. I honestly and truly feel like a person and not treated as some random patient who’s just a number. […]Without their help, I wouldn’t be on my journey to becoming me.”

Rachelle C.

“I love True U, I found them after some online searching for a quality transgender health care clinic and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Reasonable pricing, always quick and reliable with any questions you may have. […] It’s great I can use my insurance to pay for labs and hormones as well, it saves me a fortune! 10/10 would recommend to anyone seeking quality care.”

Jordan S.

In short, yes. At True U, we understand that transferring care can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s why we’re committed to providing our clients with a seamless and stress-free process.

Our goal is to ensure your transition is as smooth as possible and to provide the high-quality care you deserve from day one.

How do I know my information is safe with True U?
