TransFriendly GPs in Cork

Hi, so I am planning on doing MtF DIY injections, but before starting I want to take bloods to see my baseline, and then also do the occasional bloods test to monitor my levels. I already emailed transharmreduction about a list of transfriendly GPs in the (north) Cork County Area but havent gotten a reply yet. Does anybody know? Or atleast know where I can look other than emailing places and not hearing back from them. Thanks.

Dr. Sarah Hough from Cork City Medical Centre is a member of WPATH (World professional Assocation of Trangender Health) which makes here a good candidate for a supportive GP. Not sure if she takes any new patients though.

If you just want to check your bloods however, you can always get them done at Doctor365 or Randox.

All of this is in Cork city though.

Thanks! Are those other options any more/less expensive?

Costs about the same, I think. GP visit is usually 65€ but I have also been charged just 30€ for bloods only. Doctor365 and Randox are both around 40€ I think (check their website for prices).
