My GP is a woman whom I have gone to for about ten years; I have not disclosed my CDing to her. I don't think that she knows nor do I think that she would care if I told her. As I go farther on my transitioning path, I will undoubtedly need to tell her and get her recommendations for the changing care that I will need. I feel very comfortable about doing this, but actually I would be fine with a male as long as he behaves professionally and has expertise in the areas of my interest and need.
