.. Or any local trans-friendly doctor that will prescribe HRT (and do blood tests) without therapy really?
Planned Parent hood would be your best bet but you might want to consider a therapist that would be wiling to write you a letter after a small number of visits. Many of us accumulate issues that if not dealt with can make the transition more difficult. In addition, if you are considering surgery at a latter date, you will need a therapist letter and a long track record will make obtaining that letter less of a problem.
Thanks for your concern, but I'm not planning on getting SRS at the moment. Also, I'm 22 and a half, so I feel like the sooner I start hormones the better.
Dr Rhett Brown at Novant Family medicine midtown has handled my HRT for years and he is wonderful!

When I lived and worked in Charlotte, I heard from several trans friends that they saw Dr Rhett Brown or Dr Thomas Marlowe for hrt with no letter. This was quite a while ago, though.
