Find an Inclusive Provider in our Diversity Directory: LGBTQ Doctor Search
Diversity Builder was founded in 2003 with the mission of building a directory of inclusive businesses for members of diverse groups seeking services, particularly inclusive access to healthcare. It was important to the Diversity Builder founders to help ensure patients had access to non-discriminatory healthcare providers regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, culture or other parts of one’s identity.
The diversity directory was the first of its kind to list providers in every state in the nation, rather than just the large metropolitan cities. It was not easy creating this directory. It was truly a labor of love from the entire project team. Finding dentists willing to serve all patients was particularly difficult. The team experience many phone hang ups and personal threats.
Referrals to Inclusive Healthcare Providers
During the project and following the directory completion, Diversity Builder’s leadership team realized that visitors seeking services would often require a personal referral to a doctor dentist or therapist in their area. The LGBTQI community was one diverse group being rejected for care regularly. We recognized that patients in remote areas or having specific needs may not find a provider on our director or the GLMA’s and possibly not receive the care they need. This was simply unacceptable to us.
Find LGBTQI Welcoming Doctors
Regular doctor exams are sometimes skipped due to apprehension regarding the patient’s comfort level with the physician. The Diversity Builder team has provided referrals to healthcare or other providers upon request since 2004. Our team is willing to make those calls to identify LGBTQI-inclusive providers as a way to give back to the community.
Diversity Builder will perform a specialized search, free of charge, for an inclusive doctor, dentist, or business nationwide. Just fill out our contact form.

Concierge medicine started in 1996 in Seattle. It has gradually moved across the country and is now available in St. Louis. Concierge medical practices charge an annual fee to join their practice. For that annual fee, patients receive more personalized attention and service since their physician has a smaller practice. The average physician cares for 3000-5000 patients and spends seven minutes with each patient. Dr. Laffey’s practice is capped at 300 and she spends an average of an hour with each patient.
