Tennessee Republican Governor Bill Lee has called for an investigation of the Pediatric Transgender Clinic at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) after shocking videos posted by Matt Walsh detailed a doctor’s promotion of “big money maker” transgender surgeries.
The videos obtained by Walsh also show apparent threats made against medical professionals at VUMC if they objected to the procedures, even for religious reasons.
“The ‘pediatric transgender clinic’ at Vanderbilt University Medical Center raises serious moral, ethical and legal concerns,” Lee said in a statement to The Daily Wire. “We should not allow permanent, life-altering decisions that hurt children or policies that suppress religious liberties, all for the purpose of financial gain. We have to protect Tennessee children, and this warrants a thorough investigation.”
Lee’s comments follow a detailed thread from Daily Wire host and author Matt Walsh on the medical center. In one of the video’s shared by Walsh, VUMC Clinic for Transgender Health’s Dr. Shayne Sebold Taylor admitted, “These surgeries are labor intensive, they require a lot of follow-ups, they require a lot of our time, and they make money,” she emphasized. “They make money for the hospital.”
At another Medicine Grand Rounds lecture, staffers are warned by Vanderbilt health law expert Ellen Wright Clayton that any “conscientious objection” will be met with “consequences,” and are told they probably shouldn’t be working at VUMC if they don’t want to participate in the trans surgeries, which include minor patients.
“If you are going to assert conscientious objection, you have to realize that that is problematic,” Clayton said. “You are doing something to another person, and you are not paying the cost for your belief. I think that is a … real issue.”
Clayton said conscientious objectors would be “accommodated,” but said these people have to find someone else to carry out such surgeries for them.
“I just want you to take home that saying that you’re not going to do something because of your conscientious — because of your religious beliefs, is not without consequences, and should not be without consequences,” she stressed. “And I just want to put that out there.”
“We are given an enormous — if you don’t want to do this kind of work, don’t work at Vanderbilt,” she stressed.
The medical center has also detailed transgender surgeries and treatments available for minors. Video from the Vanderbilt Psychiatry YouTube channel reveals the medical center “explicitly [admits] that they will give and have given irreversible hormone drugs to children as young as 13,” Walsh wrote.
“So, let’s review. Vanderbilt got into the gender transition game admittedly in large part because it is very financially profitable,” he closed the Twitter thread. “They then threatened any staff members who objected, and enlisted a gang of trans activists to act as surveillance in order to force compliance.”
“They now castrate, sterilize, and mutilate minors as well as adults, while apparently taking steps to hide this activity from the public view,” Walsh added. “This is what ‘health care’ has become in modern America.”
The Daily Wire reached out to Vanderbilt, but it did not provide a comment.
Medical schools have abandoned all ethics training
Proof that lefties have zero ethics whatsoever.
I think it’s proof the Devil exists.
People don’t become this corrupted in their mind and soul without prompting.
Southern Republican governors do a great job for the Chamber of Commerce like Brian Kemp in Georgia, Kay Ivey in Alabama, Henry McMaster in South Carolina, Tate Reeves in Mississippi and Governor Lee in Tennessee.
They bend over to kiss up to corporate entities but there’s more to the picture than that when it comes to leadership.
We shall see where this leads but to simply talk investigation will not stop what is going on.
All “doctors” involved need to lose medical licenses and teaching credentials, and maybe go to prison
Castrating perfectly healthy young boys should be illegal. Totally illegal! Same thing with performing mastectomies on perfectly healthy young girls. I don’t know how this Mengele gaggle of ”doctors” got in control of our medical profession, but they need to be sued into oblivion—for a start—and lose their licenses. Same thing goes for the affirming therapists and psychologists.
Disfigurement SURGERIES ON CHILDREN of their physical characteristics to satisfy some immature, perverse desire to change their sex should be met with prosecution and LONG prison terms.
Those who push this are subhuman monsters and have NO BUSINESS having any proximity to the lawful practice of medicine.
WTF has happened to our once fine country!!! It is going to HELL QUICKER than anything I’ve ever seen....ALL SINCE GAY MARRIAGE!!
There is no other description of these people than evil.
It's just the wrong king of "ethics" training.

I suggest lethal injection for the doctors involved.
“Doctors” do this to children. Unfreakinbelievable.
“People don’t become this corrupted in their mind and soul without prompting.”
It’s also a gradual process. We wouldn’t be arguing about the “ethics” of mutilating born children if the medical profession hadn’t abandoned ethical principles decades ago when they agreed to mutilate and murder unborn children.
But they did, and they had to rationalize that to themselves. Those that couldn’t rationalize it probably found jobs elsewhere. And those that could rationalize it have had their consciences deadened and are numb to such barbarism now.
Its Doctor Mengele, but with a profit motive.
Whether people believe it or not, there’s a hidden spiritual battle going on all the time. Satan is the master of lies, and his best lie is probably that he and his crew (the demons) doesn’t exist.
I have no doubt that the people who are pushing this great evil—castrating children, giving them harmful drugs to stop puberty, etc—believe that they are doing good and we are evil. It’s like a religion to them. That it’s profitable in the process? Bonus!
This won’t stop until people finally get involved and put an end to it. Vote the bastards who support this out! They’re called Democrats.
Most voters may be indifferent now, but just wait until one of your children walks in and wants to be hacked up and sterilized by the nut jobs!
...Barbara Gittings was a well known activist during this time as well. Although Gittings was not a librarian, she was the first head of the American Library Association’s “Gay Task Force.” Her objective was to bring books advocating sodomy to the attention of librarians, in hopes of having them included in their libraries. At one American Library Association meeting Gittings set up a same-gender kissing booth to attract attention to her cause. Gittings tells about her activism against the APA:"Besides the ALA, I was also very involved, along with many other people, in efforts to get the American Psychiatric Association… to drop its listing of homosexuality as a mental illness. Psychiatrists were one of the three major groups that had their hands on us. They had a kind of control over our fate, in the eyes of the public, for a long time. Religion and law were the other two groups that had their hands on us. So, besides being sick, we were sinful and criminal. But the sickness label infected everything that we said and made it difficult for us to gain any credibility for anything we said ourselves. The sickness issue was paramount."

Barbara Gittings would be very proud of the pervert progress today. They've achieved the trifecta.

Bet within a week someone will put up a post about Mr. Walsh being raided by the Feds and all his papers and electronics being taken into custody.
He’ll be excoriated for a few weeks first.
