Description
Summary:Replies to the comments made by Kenneth J. Zucker (see record 2015-34242-004) on the authors' original article, "Serving transgender youth: Challenges, dilemmas, and clinical examples” (see record 2015-06830-005). We appreciate the correction of the historical record that the Amsterdam clinic was the third and not the first specialty clinic to serve gender dysphoric children and youth. The clinics in Los Angeles and Toronto should be recognized for their pioneering work in this important field. Our intent was to highlight the critical role of the Amsterdam group, the first pediatric academic hospital-based program to provide pubertal suppression for transgender adolescents.
