About Bywater

Two men standing back to back, crossing their arms confidently against a yellow background. One man is holding pink disco ball sunglasses.

We do things differently here.

We aren't just a clinic; we are a tribute to the community that raised us. Founded by queer nurse practitioner Chuck Williamson, Bywater combines high-level clinical expertise with the radical joy of queer culture. RuPaul famously asks, "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?" At Bywater Health, we take that to heart. We believe healthcare is the ultimate act of self-love. Our goal isn't just to treat symptoms; it’s to provide meticulous, expert care our community needs to feel vibrant, seen, and truly at home in thr own skin. Can I get an amen?
