Before someone accuses me of using a source which lies or something:

IDEAS: And how did you make the case for this specialised clinic at Children's Hospital?

SPACK: In the last five years, I've been getting more and more referrals, parents with gender-variant kids. The parents heard about me through Internet support groups. So, I began to bring my transgender patients and their parents - kids as young as 9 - to a large number of clinical conferences in various departments at Children's Hospital. That way, my colleagues could learn about this population. My philosophy is, "Who am I to say what it's like to be transgender when I have people who are living with it every day?" These kids won over the hospital, one department at a time.
