I would have preferred more in depth assessments. Some questions were asked before content has been covered. I found the content of the course informative and on level adequate for primary care.

Good introduction course with lots of great medical terminology in an easily digestible format. You don't have to be a doctor to pass this course.

Very good course for a broad overview of transgender healthcare and can help get you started on hormone therapy education.
