US Detransitioner wins medical malpractice lawsuit and receives $2 million

From US reporter Benjamin Ryan

”BREAKING: 1st Detransitioner to Take a Medical-Malpractice Lawsuit to Trial Wins $2 Million Judgement

Fox Varian sued her Westchester, NY, area psychologist and plastic surgeon for the gender-transition mastectomy she got at 16.

I was the only reporter to attend the entire 3-week, historic trial. Subscribe to my Substack to receive an alert about the feature article I have coming out next week in a major publication out about the trial: benryan.substack.com. I cover pediatric gender medicine as a specialty on my Substack.

Sorry to just give just a teaser for now about the case! But I wanted to get the word out about the verdict promptly, the slower pace of feature-article publishing notwithstanding.

The entire case file was put under seal when the trial started (although I obtained all those documents before they was sealed), and all the transcripts from the trial are also under seal. The riveting trial was sparsely attended and there was only one other reporter at the trial; and he only attended for part of it and, as I observed, took few notes. So my own hundreds of pages of notes from the trial will likely remain the only way for the public to learn about the all finer details of what transpired, possibly ever (or until an appeal, should that happen).

In addition to my article coming out in the media outlet soon, I intend to write a lot about what I observed and learned on my Substack over the coming weeks. Stay tuned…”

May this be the start of an avalanche.

I think Hadley might be the person I most consistently agree with in this world.

I can see why she doesn’t work for the Guardian anymore…..

In 2022, Boston Children’s Hospital proudly posted videos promoting “gender-affirming hysterectomies” and its own doctors claimed “refusing to get a haircut” and “plays with the opposite gender toys” were signs a young child might be transgender.

These people can't be prosecuted fast enough.

Wasnt it Boston Hospital from which that footage came of the woman enthusing about how much money gender surgeries brought in, and how it was a growth industry?

That was from a Grand Rounds at Vanderbilt University Hospital.
