Finding a doctor can be especially difficult in many Georgia counties. For LGBTQ patients, it can be even worse. A first-of-its-kind clinic in Savannah is working to ease that difficulty.

As a part of LGBTQ Pride Month, On Second Thought checked in with the Starland Family Practice, a routine family medical office with a focus on LGBTQ patients, celebrating its one-year anniversary.

On Second Thought host Virginia Prescott speaks with Brandon Earehart and Dr. Raymond Martins.

Brandon Earehart is the clinic’s owner and physician assistant and Dr. Raymond Martins, the clinic’s physician, joined On Second Thought from GPB's Savannah studio to talk about the unique medical issues facing the LGBTQ community and how clinics work with insurance companies to get patients the medicines they need.
