Update at 6:15pm - all systems restored. IT systems are down across the practice (and we think surgeries across York). Please bear with us as we cannot use any of our computer systems currently. The prioryCARE form has been turned off as the teams cannot access the system to look at cases. If you have an urgent issue please contact NHS 111 or be aware that our reception and patient central teams will not be able to access your medial records. N3i, our provider, are aware and working on a solution. We will update you further as we have more updates.
Gender Identity Services
Leeds Gender Identity Clinic
Leeds Gender Identity Service accept referrals for patients aged 17+ from our practice and they also accept self-referrals. Referrals can be made using the form found on their website.
PMG will not take on any new requests for shared care agreements (SCA) for Gender Dysphoria/Incongruence. Along with other local GP practices, we have raised concerns about patient safety. This is due to the absence of a funded, formal shared care agreement process with NHSE, as unmonitored hormone prescribing can cause serious complications to a patient's health. See policy on our prescribing page.
Patients already on hormone therapy will continue to be reviewed, but should complications or concerns arise- the medication may need to be stopped or reduced and re-referral back to the Leeds Specialist Clinic- as there is no current SCA support for Prescribers.
