For the first time, we’re hearing from the Dallas doctor who’s suing Children’s Medical Center over a change in treatment for transgender youth.
“Claiming these parents are child abusers, it’s actually the opposite. It's quite the opposite,” said Lopez. Lopez and her attorneys believe political pressure influenced the shutdown of Genecis and filed a petition seeking to depose university and hospital leaders.
On May 11, attorneys for Lopez filed suit against Children’s Medical Center and“Within 24 hours of getting the TRO we had 60 news patients call,” said Lopez."We’re working around the clock to get them scheduled within these two weeks." “I've realized that these families are in much more distress, really in a crisis mode, much more than what I’m used to before Genecis was disbanded,” said Lopez. Her attorneys will ask for a more permanent ruling on May 26 at a hearing Paxton's office is expected to participate in after filing a petition to intervene Tuesday. “I have a mixture of feelings. I’m infuriated. I’m sad. I’m disappointed in government officials because they’re supposed to look out for the most vulnerable,” said Lopez.UT Southwestern and Children’s Health say they can't comment on pending litigation. NBC 5 reached out to Paxton's office for comment and has yet to receive a response as of this writing.
