Law firm Campbell Miller Payne is representing two clients in separate suits, one of which names the American Academy of Pediatrics as a co-defendant. One woman suffered from gender confusion while another had “dissociative identity disorder” but did not actually have gender dysphoria.
The Rhode Island state lawsuit on behalf of Isabelle Ayala alleges Dr. Michelle Forcier and Dr. Jason Rafferty placed Ayala and other gender-confused individuals on “a conveyor belt of life-altering puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and/or experimental surgeries.”
Isabelle believed she was a boy, but also had untreated depression and anxiety. She attempted suicide six months after she began seeking care from the medical professionals, which included testosterone injections.
Both Forcier, a professor at Brown University’s medical school, and Rafferty, are prominent supporters of the chemical and surgical mutilation of children. Both also work at Lifespan Physician Group, a named defendant and a dominant medical care provider in Rhode Island.
Lifespan’s media director Kathleen Hart did not respond to a Wednesday morning inquiry that asked for comment on the lawsuit and how it ensures individuals understand the consequences of procedures, as well as what follow-up it conducts on adverse reactions.
The corporation works closely with Brown University and just recently signed a collaboration agreement with the Ivy League college. Rafferty also teaches at Brown.
Forcier famously appeared in Matt Walsh’s “What is a Woman” movie. She also worked as a Planned Parenthood abortionist and claimed “babies and infants understand differences in gender.”
She did not respond to a Wednesday morning email from LifeSiteNews that asked for comments on the allegations made against her in the two separate lawsuits as well as how she ensures individuals understand the risk of body-altering procedures. Rafferty did not respond to the same questions, either.
Rafferty drafted the American Academy of Pediatrics’ (AAP) “comprehensive care” statement which supported the genital and surgical mutilation of gender-confused kids.
