Can we provide a letter for your GP?
Our GP letters help do the talking, so you don’t always have to. At Can We, we understand that it’s not always easy to speak up and ask for what we need when it comes to being treated the way we’d like to be treated by healthcare professionals.
That’s why we created our general and comprehensive GP letters, that spell out the more sensitive stuff so you don’t have to worry about it. Whether it’s ensuring your doctor uses the right pronouns or name for you or a part of your body, or you have more specific requests when it comes to a test, our letters are here to help.
These letters can be extra helpful if you’ve had a hard experience in the past with cervical screening, have a history of trauma, and/or traumatic experiences with cervical screening. Just say the word, and we’ll say it for you.
General Letter
This general letter outlines that all people with a cervix require regular cervical screening regardless of other sex characteristics, gender identity, gender expression, sexuality or sexual history.
Comprehensive Letter
If you’ve had a bad experience with Pap tests in the past, have a history of trauma and/or traumatic experiences with Pap tests, or you want to make sure your doctor uses the right name and pronouns for you, our comprehensive letter includes a list of requests you can select from to make the testing procedure as easy as possible.
