New NHS children’s gender clinic hit by disagreements and resignations

At least four experts quit Great Ormond Street team after disputes over text of training module for recruits, sources say

A string of resignations from a team preparing for the launch of the new NHS children’s gender clinic has further complicated plans to open the services in April.

Disagreements over the text of a training module for medical recruits to the new gender service have prompted NHS England to remove the training materials project from a team at Great Ormond Street hospital and outsource it to the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges.
