The doctor fell against the doctor who insisted on caring for transors’ Transgender

Federal prosecutors have dropped charges against a Texas surgeon who was accused of obtaining and sharing confidential medical information about the treatment of minors in the U.S. a country.

The surgeon, Dr. Eithan Haim, was indicted in May in Houston District Court on four counts of obtaining, under false pretenses, personal information from an online hospital on the Internet. He requested access to the hospital records database in 2023, two years after he last worked, saying he needed the information to provide “adult care services.”

The doctor took the health care information that received the services related to the transition and revealed this information to a conservative activist, Christopher Rufo. Mr. Rufo wrote an article that said the hospital continued to provide transgender care to minors after he reported the practice.

Dr. Haim, 34, who agreed to the statement in the records, pleaded not guilty because he did not believe he did anything wrong, he said in a phone interview Saturday at his home. He called himself a whistleblower and said he redacted patients’ records to hide identifiable information.

The prosecutor did not provide an explanation for the withdrawal of the charges, and said Dr. Haim said they were relieved and surprised that they did. He said he has President Trump to thank, “100 percent.”

“He’s a man,” she said.

Texas Children’s Hospital said in an emailed statement that it will “back and respect” the prosecutors’ decision, which was announced Friday.

The removal of the charges is yet another attack on transgender rights, especially in Texas, said Johnohathan Gooch, a spokesman for TODS Equality, an LGBTQ advocacy group.

In recent years, the state has developed laws on transgender sites, including one where transgender athletes will not play on girls’ and women’s sports teams from Primary. These laws have had significant negative consequences for the trans community, according to advocacy groups.

In states that have anti-trans laws, the rate of attempted suicide by Transgenders and youth unemployment is increasing, according to a study cited by the Trevor Project, the disparity in homicide- very LGBTQ.

“I think the whole thing that’s happened with the loosening of private medical records has taken away a lot of trust between LGBTQ people in Texas and their doctors, which is such an important relationship,” said Mrs. Oloch. “I think it’s scary to see a nonsensical endorsement of an anti-trans mandate from the justice department. If that’s acceptable, what else is acceptable?”

In the first week of his new term, Mr. Trump has stripped many of the protections for transgender and other LGBTQ people that were established under President Joseph R. Biden Jr.

Mr. Trump ordered that the government’s memory only knows the gender that was assigned to a person, and it is male or female. They directed federal agencies to remove transgender women from “single-use settings” such as prisons.

The intense debate about giving gender treatment to minors continues across the country, including states like Tennessee, which have fished out the treatment that was considered by the US Supreme Court. Arguments in the case were heard in December.

In Texas, transitional care for immigrants has been controversial for years. The state is one of at least 26 until 2021 to partially or totally eliminate the ban on medical treatment for minors.

By 2023, the government has banned doctors from providing breast implants, hormone therapy or transition surgery so that doctors who lose their moral license, and their spouses are prevented from to cover the cost of treatment.

The measure was upheld last year by the Texas Supreme Court. And in October, the state’s attorney, Ken Paxton prosecuted a Dallas Pediatrician who he accused of providing gender-based care to minors in violation of the law. The case is pending.

For Dr. Haim, the decision to disrupt medical treatment independent of the activists who published the information was easy, he said, because he felt that the hospital had harmed the child and the public needed to die.

When I first heard Dr. Haim that his colleagues at the Children’s hospital treated Transgender children, the care of gender equality is legal in the state. But in early 2022, G. Greg Abbott ordered the state’s child protection agency to conduct an investigation into the treatment of transgender youth as “child abuse,” and he said some people don’t report a case that is given his care.

A week later, to protect itself and patients from legal claims, Texas Children’s Texas announced that it will not stop providing care for gender equality.

Said Dr. Haim is sure that the Trump administration will take care of the country, so “the last radical surgery will be over, and they can get the help they need to live a normal life.” He said that he believes that people who think that transgender is only for health care, but not for blocking drugs or surgery.

The American Academy of Pediatrics, however, requires these treatments to treat male dysphoria, which is a psychological condition that can occur when the body does not match the male or female gender. The organization ordered a review of existing data and research on transgender care, so it could update its practice guidelines.

Genital surgery for young people is rare, but advanced surgical procedures have become more common for the elderly.

After Dr. Haim pointed out that last summer, some Republican politicians took an interest in the matter. Senator Ted Cruz of Teamas sent a letter to Alamdar S. Hamdani, who is currently the US Attorney for the Southern District of the United States, expressing concern that the case may be overturned.

Said Dr. Haim spoke about the case last summer with Senator Josh Hawley, Republican of Missouri, at a meeting of the Alliance for Freedom, a legal advocacy group that has pushed for anti-translender legislation.

Regardless of why the charges came down, Dr. Haim called the development “a miracle.” If convicted, he faces up to 10 years in prison.
