Jenny, I work in a pediatric office though I am not a pediatrician. Two providers I work with (one and MD and one an NP), quietly tell me they cannot abide by what the AAP has told them regarding affirmation. But the other pediatricians I work with, accept the AAP’s stance as though it’s been vetted so it must be the proper stance. What the AAP says and does has historically had great heft and wielded power. That was why when my family began going through this stuff with our daughters, I was doubly shocked--one, that I was going through this with my girly, artistic daughter, and two, the professionals (AAP policy) are practicing something that is not evidence-based, they’re gaslighting me, and then emotionally blackmailing me as the parent. What ? Are you serious??!! #thelawsuitsarestarting
Thank you so much for writing about Isabella's case. She contacted us at Transition Justice, and we referred her to her current law firm, Campbell Miller Payne, which has done a fantastic job so far with her case. I hope and pray she gets justice for this horrendous series of acts of malpractice, medical battery and downright fraud.
"If one bottle of Doctor Dockins Duckbill Powder didn't cure you, surely we just ought to double the dose" - This is how patent medicine fraud happens.
80mg of Testosterone per week - wow! In comparison, my 15 year old son has a genetic condition in which his body doesn't produce enough Testosterone. He takes 50mg per week, for proper hormone balance. We do bloodwork every 6 months, and he's closely monitored by a specialist. That we administer T to adolescent females is just baffling.
great article. thank you
keep em coming.
