A judicial review may affect the future of Gender Plus, the only regulated private trans healthcare provider for patients 16 and older in the UK. The High Court will examine the Care Quality Commission’s (CQC) decision to grant the clinic regulated status, which was achieved in January 2024 with an 'outstanding' rating by December. Critics warn that if the clinic loses this status, trans youth could face significant risks and limited access to essential care, putting them in a precarious situation due to the lengthy waiting times at regional centres. Gender Plus emphasizes its commitment to providing high-quality healthcare per NHS guidelines.
Without a regulated private healthcare service, trans youngsters in the UK would be forced either to endure the years-long waiting times at regional hubs.
Our multi-disciplinary team has decades of combined experience working with young people, and our commitment to providing the best possible service is what resulted in both our CQC registration.
