Interview with Haylee Veazey
Haylee Veazey is a white trans woman from Farmington New Mexico. She discusses growing up in a small conservative and religious town, and her struggles with herself and her family. She discusses her experience in medical school and transition in the workplace, and how differently she was treated in the medical community when she presented as a man versus a woman. She talks about how coming out as trans allowed her to focus on specifically LGBT issues, and starting the Adult Gender and Sexual Health clinic at Hennepin Medical Medical Center in Minneapolis, and the specific problems trans people face with health insurance.
