The Truth About Gender Clinics: Whistleblower Jamie Reed

American Thought Leaders

"We were bullying people into these concepts. It was an ideological bullying across the medical spectrum. And as you pull out of medicine, you see this in the schools, in journalism, in peer-reviewed publications—it's everywhere."

In 2018, Jamie Reed began working as a case manager at a pediatric gender center. But after witnessing firsthand the irreversible effect that "gender-affirming care" was having on children, she decided to speak out.

"At the end of the day in these centers, nobody was the responsible one. So, the therapists would write a letter thinking that the endocrinologist was making the decision, the endocrinologist would say, 'But the therapist wrote the letter.' And then they would all go and say, 'But the parents are making the decision,'" says Ms. Reed.

She was recently instrumental in Missouri state legislation to extend the statute of limitations for those harmed by gender treatment. That fear of liability, claims Ms. Reed, was enough to close her former gender clinic.

"I was complicit, I worked in an industry that was harming children. And the thing that I have to grapple with every day is making amends for that and trying to address the wrongs that I participated in," says Ms. Reed.
