In a world of confusing and contradictory messages about the meaning of male and female, where can families, health professionals and the public turn for guidance? We are psychiatrists who care for transgender-identified youths, and we believe the answer should be simple: the American Psychiatric Association. The association calls for the “highest ethical standards of […]
A Missouri lawmaker recently criticized a new LGBTQ nursing class at the University of Missouri at Saint Louis where students wrote songs and books to raise awareness about the “disparities and injustices facing the LGBTQ community.” The course, “Healthcare Within the LGBTQIAA+ Community,” was offered for the first time in the fall 2023 semester through […]
The Johns Hopkins University Chief Diversity Officer Dr. Sherita Hill Golden is under fire for sending an email that labels all white people, males, and Christians (among others) as beneficiaries of “privilege.” Turns out, she was simply taking cues from the Association of American Medical Colleges.
The definition used by Golden almost perfectly mimics the AAMC’s definition of privilege. Screenshots indicate that the language was lifted without attribution, though it is possible that it appears somewhere else in the email.
While Europe pulls back from so-called “gender-affirming care,” the United States keeps pushing the ideology on its citizens. Dr. Roy Eappen, an endocrinologist certified by the Royal College of Physicians of Canada, wants to know why America is moving in the wrong direction and ignoring the science. He believes the “mental and physical health of […]
First year medical students at UCLA’s medical school were allegedly assigned readings from activists and educators calling for the abolition of borders, according to a medical transparency group. Do No Harm said the readings were assigned in the required course, “Structural Racism and Health Equity.” Copies of the documents were shared with National Review on Thursday. […]
In a letter to the editor titled “Unwarranted charge of systemic racism,” Do No Harm member Dr. James Lally responded to claims of bias causing health disparities in a regional publication’s article.
In Alberta, at least, science and common sense still reign. That’s the reality now that Premier Danielle Smith has prohibited transgender procedures for children. In Alberta, kids under the age of 16 will no longer be eligible to receive puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones, while sex-change surgeries will be limited to those 18 and older. […]
Hospice and palliative nurses care for some of the most complex patients and their families during a time when they are at their most vulnerable. Because of the multifaceted nature of their medical conditions, these patients depend on the clinical knowledge and skills of their nurses. But “the premier national credentialing organization” that certifies these nurses aims to prioritize identity politics over merit with a new strategy.
Black Lives Matter leaders have absconded with millions in donations while the organization languishes in debt. Meanwhile, the organization regularly traffics in hateful and radical ideology which includes a demand to defund the police, opposition to the nuclear family, and support for the perpetrators of Hamas’ October 7th attack against Israel.
Hospitals and healthcare organizations must provide race and ethnicity information about their staff and leaders if they hope to secure a new Health Care Equity Certification offered by The Joint Commission (TJC), even though there’s no evidence that doctors, nurses and other providers will treat patients differently according to these metrics.
In its explanation to healthcare providers about data collection for this new, advanced certification, TJC unbelievably acknowledges outright that racial concordance factors into it.
Dr. Kris Kaliebe, a board-certified General, Forensic, and Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist and professor in the Psychiatry Department at the University of South Florida, joins the Do No Harm Podcast to discuss the plea for scholarly dialogue concerning so-called “gender affirming care” for youth. He has been outspoken on both gender ideology and the impact […]
A recent report published by the American Hospital Association (AHA)’s Institute for Diversity and Health Equity (IFDHE) highlights that DEI attitudes are widespread in American hospitals.
The report includes the findings of a June 2022 survey which was administered to over 6,000 hospitals with more than 1,300 responses.
A veteran nurse slammed the Virginia General Assembly’s latest bill that would force nurses across the commonwealth to receive implicit bias training in order to obtain and keep their medical licenses. “The bill proposes that without the implicit bias training, that licenses will not be able to be renewed, and this is a little surprising in a time when we’ve heard […]
Transgender activists have pushed their own ideological extremism,” reads a new op-ed from the New York Times. Yes, you read that right. This is not a Fox News chyron, a tweet from Libs of TikTok, or an excerpt from “Do No Harm,” The Daily Caller’s groundbreaking documentary on the pediatric transgender crisis. No, this is […]
Many medical schools are adopting a flawed theory called “racial concordance” to justify admitting students based on their race, a medical watchdog organization warned in a new report. Regardless of the Supreme Court’s ban on affirmative action last June, many institutions of higher education, including medical schools, still appear to be seeking ways to keep race a […]
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) ended up in hot water with his party late last year for vetoing legislation that would protect vulnerable children from irreversible, experimental sex change procedures. Following backlash for his decision, DeWine signed an executive order banning these services for children, before the state legislature overturned his veto entirely. While LGBTQ+ advocates like to claim that children […]
Dr. Sally Satel, American Enterprise Institute senior fellow and lecturer at the Yale University School of Medicine, penned a February 6 guest post for the Unsafe Science Substack that urged a refocus on what academic excellence in medical education means.
Citing a recent Perspective feature article in the New England Journal of Medicine titled “Centering Women of Color to Promote Excellence in Academic Medicine,” Dr. Satel challenged the injustices in NIH funding and career advancement the authors allege.
Last December, we reported that both chambers of the Virginia legislature had introduced bills that would force the state’s physicians and nurses to complete “unconscious bias” training in order to obtain and keep their licenses. This week, the budgetary impact of the Senate version of this bill was revealed – and it’s significant.
Senate Bill 35 (SB35) “directs the Board of Medicine and the Board of Nursing to require unconscious bias and cultural competency training as part of the continuing education and continuing competency requirements for renewal of licensure.” This is a novel requirement for Virginia’s doctors and nurses – and the Commonwealth is sparing no expense to make it a reality. According to the Department of Planning and Budget fiscal impact statement for this legislation, the preliminary estimate of the cost is no less than $3,478,000, beginning in FY25. Each Board will require five new full-time equivalent positions – at a cost of $140,750 each – to fulfill the internal requirements created by the bill.
