White House Lauds Plastic Surgeons' Statement on Trans Surgery

Source: NPRThe Trump administration celebrated a recent statement from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, which recommends that doctors delay gender-related surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old. In an email to NPR, the Society noted that the new position statement is not a reversal of a previous position. It is also not a new clinical practice guideline, but rather, an articulation of the professional group's recommendations.
