Whitman-Walker Health
For 40 years, Whitman-Walker Health has been a sanctuary for the underserved populations of the Greater Washington area. Through multiple sites in Washington, DC, staff provide stigma-free, culturally competent and vital healthcare to the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer communities, as well to those living with or affected by HIV; and to individuals who cannot afford to pay or feel uncomfortable in other healthcare settings. For 40 years, we have been a place where we see the person first; a healthcare home where patients are treated with the dignity, respect and love they deserve.
