Dr Kamila Kamaruddin, a GP and lead clinician at the East of England gender service, agreed there had been an increased incidence of GPs not prescribing hormone treatment, citing a lack of expertise or saying that it is not funded under a shared care agreement.
“We have had instances where GPs have been prescribing for many years and then decided not to prescribe anymore for various reasons,” she said, adding that the reason many hormone treatments were unlicensed for trans people was because medical companies couldn’t do random trials on cisgender people.
So the East of England ‘gender’ service is being run by a trans identifying male that delighted in confusing his female patients who allowed him to do far more intimate examinations when he told them he was female then when he was presenting as male. He seems remarkably relaxed about practice unlicensed drugs that are known to harm people. I wonder what his liability insurers make of that?
