Allegations that physicians at the Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital failed to inform patients of potential side effects of treatment and overlooked their mental health needs are “unsubstantiated,” according to an internal investigation conducted by Washington University and released Friday.
Washington University oversees the Transgender Center and has been under fire since Jamie Reed, a former case worker at the center, went public with allegations of misconduct earlier this year.
The university released a summary of conclusions Friday from the internal probe, saying the focus of the review was on Reed’s accusations, “with a particular emphasis on allegations of patient harm and the consenting process.”
Neither Reed nor the Missouri attorney general’s office, which is investigating Reed’s allegations, could be immediately reached for comment.

Anyone taking these first steps are already informed that us just to start with. Mental health has always been a part of the process and with those under 18, mandatory. Idiots like this person and others make false accusations out of ignorance and bigorty.

..."The investigation on gender-affirming care providers is not occuring in a vacuum. The attorney general has also issued an emergency rule, which is set to go into effect April 27. The rule would limit access to certain procedures not only for minors but for transgender adults.
The university said it is still analyzing the impact of the emergency rule.
Missouri’s lawmakers are debating restrictions on transgender athletes and a ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth."
