Our mission

At FOLX, we provide compassionate and comprehensive healthcare designed for the unique needs of the LGBTQIA+ community. Our mission is to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where you can receive the highest quality of care without fear of discrimination. We're not just elevating LGBTQIA+ health; we're redefining what great health care can look like for everyone. Join us and experience the care you deserve, from those who understand.

The FOLX Story

FOLX was founded to transform healthcare for the LGBTQIA+ community, because so many of us have been marginalized and mistreated by mainstream healthcare. Inclusive and affirming care remains inaccessible for many LGBTQIA+ people, but FOLX is changing that by increasing access and transforming the care experience.

Entrepreneur and queer health advocate A.G. Breitenstein, with the support of LGBTQIA+ leaders and clinicians, founded FOLX as the first-ever digital healthcare platform designed for us. We launched in December 2020 and have been growing ever since.

The history of queer and trans healthcare, and our communities more broadly, is a history of taking care of each other, especially when mainstream institutions have failed us. At FOLX we know that health and wellness isn't just about what happens in doctor's visits. It's about getting to know ourselves and about having that knowledge reflected and witnessed by others. It's about working together to create a better world for our community. It's about creating spaces of wellness and joy together.

In doing so, we are saving lives and transforming healthcare forever.

The FOLX team

We are proud that our entire executive team is part of the LGBTQIA+ community. 81% of our clinicians are part of the community, and so is the majority of our staff. This is healthcare by and for us, on our terms.
