HHS probing hospital over firing of nurse who blew whistle on minors getting gender treatments
Fox News
HHS launched an investigation into a pediatric hospital for over the firing of a nurse who sought religious exemption from giving minors gender treatments.
While HHS has not confirmed the hospital’s identity, it is believed to be Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) — the largest children’s hospital in the U.S. — as the investigation follows whistleblower nurse Vanessa Sivadge’s testimony on Capitol Hill. Sivadge first came forward publicly in June 2024 and was later fired in August 2024. Rachel Wolf is a breaking news writer for Fox News Digital and FOX Business.
Sivadge told lawmakers that she had witnessed "disturbing trends and concerning practices" relating to the treatment of children diagnosed with gender dysphoria. She also said that she "observed the powerful and irreversible effects" of treatments that patients were told were "lifesaving."
