Catherine Casey Transcription

My name is Catherine Casey and IÕm a physician specializing in Family Medicine. I see patients of all ages, so kids, newborns, and adolescents. I also see a lot of women for their GYN care, prenatal care, and birth control. I see men, and I see older people, so pretty much the gamete. Family medicine is a great place to develop long term relationships with patients and families and thatÕs the part that I enjoy the most. I also enjoy the variety that I get to see every day whether itÕs chronic care or urgent care or doing procedures. The biggest experiences that have shaped my career have been the type of patients that IÕve gotten to see and itÕs been a real privilege to have them share so much of their lives with me. ThatÕs part of how I got interested in doing transgender care because I started out just having a handful of transgender patients coincidently, and they were so inspiring to me I decided that this was an area I really wanted to learn more about. Right now, IÕm primarily known for my LGBTQ patient care and the transgender patient care. New patients who see us over at Crozet can expect a very warm welcome from our receptionists and really excellent communication from our nurses. I think one of my favorite parts of working at the UVA Crozet Clinic is how well we work together. People who have medical issues that require multiple specialists, really benefit from coming to UVA because we collaborate really well and work together really well. So if you want that whole person care, thatÕs well coordinated, itÕs an excellent choice. I also like the fact that we offer financial screening for patients who have difficulty affording healthcare.
