Health care of the gay male patient.
A significant number of men presenting to any primary care physician are gay or have had sexual encounters with members of their own sex. It is important, therefore, that the physician be familiar with particular medical care issues commonly encountered in this population and that she or he also be aware of psychosocial issues that impact on the gay patient's well-being and on the physician's ability to provide competent primary care.
