We’re partnering with our friends at AHS Sexual & Reproductive Health to increase the availability of affirming reproductive health to trans and gender diverse folks. These pop-up clinics are private, afterhours events, exclusively for the Two-Spirit, trans and gender diverse community and by registration only.

These clinics are offered at the Sheldon Chumir Health Centre and staffed by affirming healthcare professionals. The Skipping Stone team is also always on site to help provide support, and bring alone some snacks, games and more to help ease anxieties and add in some fun.

FAQs

When you arrive at the Chumir (1213 4th Street SW), enter at the Urgent Care side (west side), and then come up to the 5th floor and look for the Skipping Stone banner and team member who will help you get all checked in and directed to the right place.
If security greets you, when you enter the building, tell them you have an appointment upstairs.
- Health Care Card (if you have it)
- A support person (if you’d like)
All staff members will ask your name and pronouns first and use those regardless of what appears on your Alberta Healthcare Card. This can be included on profile/chart as well. You’ll be asked to complete an “organ inventory” so the staff know what your needs are, but there is never an assumed connection between what appears on the inventory and your identity.
For people on testosterone, dryness can make pelvic exams uncomfortable. If this is a concern, please reach out 2 weeks prior to your appointment and doctors can discuss a short-term cream to help reduce discomfort. The clinic can be reached at (403) 955-6500.
If you want to get an IUD, please book your IUD insertion appointment 1 week prior to confirm. You can book an IUD insertion inclusive appointment here.
You only need to contact the clinic if:
- If you are worried about pelvic pain with a pelvic exam, please contact the clinic 2 weeks ahead to book a phone call with a doctor.
- If you have any other questions for medical staff at the clinic.
The clinic can be reached at (403) 955-6500.
