FOLX Health
Providing specialized, virtual healthcare and making it accessible for the LGBTQIA+ community
What is the Challenge?
Although the number of people identifying as something else than heterosexual has increased in recent years, healthcare services offered to this group have not followed a proportional growth pattern, leaving many feeling like they are not receiving the care that they need. Indicative of this sentiment, is the fact that a lot of LGBTQIA+ patients report facing discrimination from healthcare providers, leading them to refrain from seeking medical help in acute, health-related situations. As an already marginalised group, the LGBTQIA+ community is in dire need of better solutions.
