Blackburn seeks action after doctor touts profits of transgender surgeries on video

Published



Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) is demanding action following the release of a video in which a doctor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center is seen bragging about moneymaking transgender surgeries.

“Using children for profit and political gain is deeply disturbing. Experts agree that there have not been enough clinical trials conducted to prove the safety and effectiveness of using these drugs on kids,” Blackburn said in a press release. “These drugs have not been approved for treating children experiencing gender dysphoria, but the left insists on experimenting on these children anyway.”
