NSW Labor MP raises concerns over puberty-blocking treatment at Newcastle clinic for trans and gender diverse children – ABC News

Concerns about the way a Newcastle clinic is treating trans and gender diverse children have been raised in a NSW budget estimates hearing, prompting assurances from Health Minister Brad Hazzard that he will look into it.

The New South Wales Health Minister says he will seek advice on processes at a gender clinic in Newcastle after a budget hearing was told it may be putting children on puberty-blocking medication too quickly.

During the budget estimates health hearing, Labor’s Greg Donnelly said he had grave concerns about its processes after speaking to families and clinicians associated with the clinic.
