Last week, I worked with a whistleblower to expose the child sex-change program at Texas Children’s Hospital. Executives had promised to stop such procedures, but, as the medical records demonstrate, this was not done—doctors secretly continued to provide puberty blockers and other hormones to children between the ages of 11 and 17.
Within days of the story’s publication, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an official investigation, saying that “children are not to be treated as science experiments.” And state legislators secured the votes to pass a bipartisan bill, SB 14, that would outlaw all so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors.
Now, a new whistleblower has come forward with allegations against Dr. Richard Ogden Roberts, one of the leaders of TCH’s child sex-change program. The whistleblower is a medical professional who has spent a significant amount of time observing Roberts working with gender-dysphoric patients and their families.
“I’m absolutely sick to my stomach,” this person says, expressing heartbreak at the number of children who have been led down the path of sterilization and regret. “We’re ruining them.”
This transcript has been edited for length and clarity. Texas Children’s Hospital and Dr. Roberts did not respond to a request for comment.
