We just learned our pediatrician's practice is adopting "LGBTQNOP+ Friendly" standards. Part of the Cook Children's network in Fort Worth.

The way I read the letter, in your face signage, asking kids to identify their pronouns, and if they want to be something other than what they were born with.

Has anyone seen this change in their kid's Dr.? Was it in your face?

Does anyone have a pediatrician they like in Fort Worth that isn't part of Cook Children's?

Opposite of what the public may think of docs, there are actually some very liberal fields in medicine. Pediatrics, obgyn, infectious disease, and oncology tend to lean very very liberal in contrast to surgeons, anesthesiologists, and radiologists

Sounds like part of the overall collapse of `Science' credibility as it becomes `Sciency' this century.

---

the more that a field of medicine has more of a "well I feel" component the more liberal it is and the more liberal minds it attracts

Good point. The thread is interesting given that Dennis Prager recently has been talking about how changed his mind is, and how thoroughly he has retracted his once great respect for the medical profession and particularly the bodies of thought and pronouncements of such like the CDC. From a perspective like his, to have it so thoroughly disillusioned is significant. He doesn't put much stock in at all -- things like the PD reference updates, etc.

now I am biased as a med student for a disclaimer, but I don't think the whole respect for medicine or trust should be lost in the entire field. For example I would trust a radiologists diagnosis and respect the crap out of them, as I would for other fields. I have different opinions on other fields however

Understand, I am simply relating what Dennis Prager has said. This is not like a mainstream media thing imo --- the rot way outweighing the positive. But he seems to be really disgusted with it. Especially the games playing with the response to covid - and this very gender bending agenda -- at the Dem's bidding.

My kids pediatrician would have several Dinosaurs in their records.

I would definitely change doctors. I would change networks completely TBH. That is insane.

I would also be very tempted to vandalize the property or put sugar in the gas tank and slash tires of any Dr. peddling this stuff. Wear a mask and park 1/4 mi away...very easy.

Mine would have a puppy and a mermaid.

Is the office MAP friendly?

"Minor Attracted Persons" are people too, and if they don't act out on it, we should accept their orientation as well. Anyone who doesn't accept is behind the times and a bigot.

That would actually make `bigotry' acceptable.

Has the science of child/human development just gone out the window?

Didn't we hear something about, "we'll convert your children recently" and more talk openly about "grooming".

Protect your children folks.

Nah man

That wasn't their intent.

Uh huh

Cutting off their junk and pumping them full of hormones is "development"?

Gina Fowler is moving her practice to Willow Park. Dr. Naidoo at Shine in Richardson is worth the drive and is opening an office in Fort Worth. Both are great non-Cook pediatricians.

Find a new one.

Report them to the Texas Medical Board if the subject is approached by the doc during a visit. This is unprofessional conduct likely to deceive the public.

What about dermatologists?

And this is why I am my own boss. Feel sorry for these docs.

Don't dermatologists like to "put the lotion on the skin?"
