Protecting Children in Gender Medicine: Ending the Silence, Restoring Medical Ethics

Join us for a powerful and timely Public Forum on Clinical Suppression amplifying the voices of doctors, parents, patients and professionals calling for urgent reforms in gender medicine and medical oversight in Queensland.

Doctors and nurses should not be silenced for speaking the truth. Children should not be harmed by unchecked ideology. It’s time to stand up—for medicine, for ethics, and for Queensland families.

In the wake of Dr Jillian Spencer’s suspension for raising clinical concerns about the Queensland Health gender clinic, medical professionals and community advocates are standing together. This event highlights what happens when doctors are silenced—and what we must do to stop the politicisation of medicine and defend ethical, evidence-based medicine.
