History
In 2015 Mosaic co-founders Mixhi Marquis, LMT and Dr. Catherine Bast had a vision for a family practice that would specifically be welcoming to LGBTQ2IA+ patients. Both having backgrounds in holistic medicine and advocacy, Mixhi and Dr. Bast knew that a place like Mosaic was crucial for the health and wellbeing of the transgender and gender-nonconforming community in Michiana. The community recognized the value of Mixhi and Dr. Bast’s vision, and rallied together; within 6 months of the initial vision, Mosaic Health and Healing Arts opened its doors.
Since opening in 2016, Mosaic has solidified itself as a bastion of whole-person and LGBTQ2IA+ family practice healthcare in Michiana. Starting with 80 patients, Mosaic’s patient panel has grown to nearly 3000 patients (including over 800 transgender and non-binary patients).
In addition to full-spectrum family medicine, Mosaic has developed into a center for gender-affirming care, HIV care and prevention, and mental health care. Mosaic has also recognized the need for LGBTQ2IA+ competency training in medicine, social work, community organizations, and offers trainings to make the community a more welcoming place.
