Texas Children’s Hospital officially opens nation's first transgender detransition clinic
Just the news ^ | 10/26/2026 | Misty Severi

Posted on 10/27/2026 3:42:45 AM PDT by DFG

The largest children's hospital in Texas officially opened the first-ever detransition clinic on Monday, providing care for patients up to age 21 who have undergone so-called gender affirming care.

The grand opening comes five months after Texas Children's Hospital settled a lawsuit with the Trump administration, which included the clinic and an agreement to pay more than $10 million in damages and civil penalties to resolve allegations it submitted false billings to public and private payors to secure insurance coverage for medicalized pediatric gender transitions.

"Today, Texas Children’s Hospital has officially launched their Detransition Clinic," Vanessa Sivadge, founder of Protect Texas Children and the clinic's whistleblower, wrote on X. "I extend my heartfelt gratitude once again to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and my attorneys at the Burke Law Group for their extraordinary dedication, sacrifice, and tireless efforts throughout this fight.

"I think of all the detransitioners who have suffered in silence, been dismissed, and fought desperately to have their voices heard. This win is for them," she continued. "I hope TCH’s admirable effort to fund and launch Americas first detransition clinic becomes a turning point for the entire country. That this clinic is not the exception, but the first of many."

The new clinic will provide services to minors including endocrinology, surgery, primary care, fertility counseling, psychiatry, psychology, social work/case management, and speech pathology.

The clinic is now accepting booking requests for appointments, which can be done here.

I’m waiting for the lawsuits and massive damage awards against doctors, insurers, hospitals and Big Pharma. They’re coming. Many of these companies deserve to be bankrupted for all the grotesque harm they’ve caused by mutilating children.

P.S. if there’s any justice, psychologists and schools will be held liable too.

Don’t hold your breath. Nothing has happened with the covid vaccine murders and mutulations. God will have to deliver the verdict. Man won’t.

Not mutilations, but destroyed lives.

There shouldn’t be a transgender detransition center. Parents should be held accountable for this BS...

Yes, of course we have allowed the mutilation of children. The battlefield is children because children are the future. There is nothing more frustrating to me than the constant revelation that people simply cannot understand that the battle for the future is always demographics. Your nation is not what you see, it is what you don’t see. You want to know what your nation is? Go watch as the children stream out of your local elementary school. That is your country. All else is temporary folly and hubris. Ergo… mass immigration is the death of your culture and legacy. Mass mutilation of confused children is just another tactic in the effort to erase Western Civilization.

Dr. Seuss’s story of the Sneetches comes to real life...

The Sneetches…! Dr. Seuss had it down way back then. If more parents had read their children this story (and other Seuss stories), many might have avoided the pain.

Some times it is the parents but not always. At least 50% of the time the parents are being pressured by various government and medical agencies. They are threatened with the loss of custody of that child or being told that their child will suicide if they do not support this or even told they will lose custody of all their children.

It is never as clean and neat as we would like.
