A former case manager at a transgender medical care center has spoken out against gender-affirming surgery for kids and revealed key details about the medical procedures occurring there.
Jamie Reed, a 42-year-old St. Louis native and self-described far-left queer woman, penned a lengthy tell-all for The Free Press in which she calls gender clinics for kids "morally and medically appalling."
She worked at Washington University's infectious diseases division in St. Louis, Mo., for four years, helping HIV-positive teens and young adults. Her work there eventually led to a job at the transgender center of the children's hospital.
Reed was responsible for patient intake and oversight during her time at the hospital. She said that most young people who walked through the door received hormone prescriptions that can have life-altering consequences, such as sterility.

"By the time I departed, I was certain that the way the American medical system is treating these patients is the opposite of the promise we make to 'do no harm.' Instead, we are permanently harming the vulnerable patients in our care," she wrote.
Upon arriving at her new position, Reed said she was struck by the lack of formal protocols for treatment, with the center's co-directors acting essentially as the sole authority.
