The US Justice Department (DOJ) has filed a four-count indictment against doctor Eithan Haim for allegedly illegally obtaining and leaking medical records of child transgender care at the Texas Children's Hospital (TCH) in Houston.
Haim is a Dallas-based surgeon who previously trained at TCH during his medical residency. Following TCH's pledge to suspend its gender-affirming care for children in 2022, the DOJ claims he reactivated his TCH login in 2023 to leak records showing the hospital was still doing so in secret.
If illegally accessing patient records under false pretenses wasn't egregious enough, the medical services Eithan Haim thought he exposed were completely normal transgender healthcare. For vulnerable children who need time to decide which gender they are, puberty blockers are a godsend. Through either ignorance or malice, Haim chose to reveal the intimate medical records of these vulnerable children. For those crimes, he's now facing the consequences.
Eithan Haim is a hero who exposed TCH for secretly falsifying medical records to continue its harmful transgender practices after promising to stop. TCH took children as young as 11 — who were dealing with anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts — and diagnosed them with gender dysphoria so they could pump them full of hormones and eventually cut off their sexual organs. The DOJ is trying to imprison a man for exposing institutionalized child abuse.
