NYC HEALTH + HOSPITALS/BELLEVUE PRIDE HEALTH CENTER HONORED FOR ADVANCING
EFFORTS TO TRAIN AND EDUCATE LGBTQ+ HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS

NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue today announced that Building the Next
Generation of Academic Physicians (BNGAP) selected the hospital’s Pride Health
Center as the recipient of its Organizational/Institutional Leadership Award.
The award recognizes Bellevue’s commitment to advancing efforts to train and
educate health care professionals on LGBTQ+ health and healthcare.

The award was presented during the LGBTQ+ Health Workforce 12th Anniversary
Conference, held May 2-4, 2024 in New York City.

“Bellevue is honored to be recognized for our commitment to our LGBTQ patients
and for training the next generation of culturally-competent providers,” said
NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue CEO William Hicks. “Our physicians and health
care professionals are leaders in providing high-quality, comprehensive care and
addressing the health needs of our LGBTQ+ patients with dignity and respect.
Congratulations to our Pride Health Center team on this well-deserved
recognition.” “We are overwhelmed to have been selected to receive the
Organizational/Institutional Leadership Award at the 2024 LGBTQ+ Health
Workforce 12th Anniversary Conference,” said Dr. Robert Pitts, Medical Director
of the Pride Health Center at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue. “We’re so honored
to receive this award because it recognizes the important work that we are doing
here at Bellevue to address equity and to deliver gender affirming health care
to all LGBTQ communities in New York City.”

Building the Next Generation of Academic Physicians (BNGAP) works to help
diverse medical students and residents become aware of academic medicine as a
career option and to provide them with the resources to further explore and
potentially embark on an academic medicine career. The theme of this year’s
conference was Creating a Roadmap to Empower the LGBTQ+ Health Community.

The Pride Health Center at Bellevue was established in 2018 to address the needs
of LGBTQ patients and communities across New York City.

“We developed the Pride Center really to meet the needs of New Yorkers across
the city and deliver gender affirming comprehensive care to all New Yorkers
regardless of their ability to pay or country of origin,” said Dr. Pitts. “This
award exemplifies the outstanding gender affirming care we deliver on a daily
basis, and is a testament to our promise to make sure that all New
Yorkers—including queer New Yorkers—can live their healthiest lives possible.”

Bellevue’s Pride Health Center is staffed by five primary care providers who see
patients every day of the week. The Center has a dedicated psychiatrist, as well
as a clinical pharmacist who sees patients for gender affirming hormone therapy,
including estrogen and testosterone, as well as long acting HIV prevention. The
Center now cares for nearly 400 LGBTQ patients, 20 percent of whom are
uninsured, 20 percent of whom speak a primary language other than English, and
80 percent of whom identify as either Black or Latino. In more than five years
of care, none of them have become HIV-positive thanks to a suite of innovative
and empathetic approaches, including a clinical trial for long-acting injectable
pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).

The LGBT Health Workforce Conference is the largest and most well-known national
LGBT health workforce conference in the United States held annually in New York
City. The conference provides an overview of up-to-date practices (climate,
educational, research, and clinical) in preparing the health care workforce to
address the health concerns and disparities of LGBT communities. Their mission
is to help prepare the health care workforce to address the health concerns of
LGBTQ communities, and to provide professional development resources to support
these goals.
