Beyond treatment is caring with understanding
Because true health begins with being truly yourself”
A dedicated healthcare service for LGBTQ+ individuals at Bangkok Hospital Headquarters.
We understand that for many gender and sexually diverse individuals, visiting a hospital can be far from easy — especially when you wonder:
“Will they understand who I am?”
“Will I have to explain my identity all over again?”
“Will I truly be treated with respect?”
Many in the LGBTQ+ community have faced negative experiences in the healthcare system — being overlooked, questioned, or even discriminated against, both consciously and unconsciously. These experiences often lead people to avoid seeking care, even when they need it most.
The Be Yourself Unit was created to be a space where you can feel safe and supported.
Here, we value and affirm your identity — just as you are. We believe that everyone deserves healthcare that is safe, warm, and respectful of their gender identity and sexual orientation. With a team of knowledgeable, compassionate, and experienced professionals, we provide holistic, person-centered care — ready to walk alongside you, no matter where you are in your life journey.
Our services are comprehensive and affirming, including:
- Stigma-free and accessible healthcare
- Gender-affirming hormone therapy and consultations for transgender individuals of all ages
- HIV prevention and treatment services, including HIV PrEP/PEP and STI testing and care
- Mental health support tailored to the lived experiences of gender and sexually diverse individuals
- Relationship, family, and life counseling with a deep understanding of diverse identities
- Health screenings delivered with sensitivity to the unique needs of LGBTQ+ communities
- Long-term healthcare planning focused on improving quality of life and overall wellbeing
Be Yourself Unit is a promise — a promise to care with understanding, compassion, and connection.
True health isn’t just the absence of illness — it’s the feeling of being accepted, respected, and valued for who you truly are.”

Positioning Statement
Shining yourself as the way you are”
