Valley is aware of the nationwide supply disruption of IV fluid solution due to Hurricane Helene, and wants to reassure the community that steps have been taken to ensure the situation will have no negative impact on our patients and the community.
At Valley Health System, our healing environment is open to all, including our LGBTQ+ neighbors.
Delivering inclusive healthcare and employment opportunities is our lasting commitment and, simply, the right thing to do.
As demonstrated by its perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign’s Healthcare Equality Index survey, Valley goes beyond the basics when it comes to adopting policies and practices in LGBTQ+ care:
Watch: At Valley, we pride ourselves on being a partner in your care, which includes your medical and well-being needs. To help us better understand how we can serve and care for you, we ask that you consider answering the Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity questions asked upon registration. Your responses will help us develop a treatment plan, customized to your needs.
In addition to the providers who practice at our Center for LGBTQ+ Care, many of our providers and practices support a care environment that is welcoming, affirming and inclusive of the LGBTQ+ community. Click on a specialty below to find a doctor for you or a loved one.
