Has gender identity ideology affected your trust in doctors?

Ever since the HSE (Irish equivalent to NHS) adopted the belief in gender identity - eg calling women 'people with cervixes'; distributing leaflets to GPs that claim 'everybody has a gender identity' - I've had a lot less trust in it.

I was referred to a specialist recently and because I hadn't heard back about an appointment I googled the clinic. The specialist came up in the search results and it turns out they use pronouns in their bio.
This makes me feel like I can't trust this person's judgement. Also, in Ireland, gender critical women are so demonised that I feel very uncomfortable having to rely on someone who may well think that I am somehow evil.

I was able to arrange to go to a different specialist. But knowing that so many health professionals here have adopted this belief system has made me dread ever having to contact any of them.

My faith in doctors has never been high. The history of medicine is riddled with atrocities against women.
