Former Women's Sports Foundation board member Nefertiti A. Greene is also a board member of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), named among the “12 worst offending children’s hospitals promoting sex change treatments for minors" for performing such experimentation on 122 patients between 2019 and 2023.

That’s according to a national database released today of hospitals and medical facilities “administering irreversible sex change interventions on children in the United States” by the organization Do No Harm. 

The data represents sources including “claims clearinghouses, data aggregators, payors, health systems, CMS, and multiple open data sources,” according to Do No Harm, and includes data from commercial insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, and VA claims.”

CHOP saw 122 “sex change” patients, who were children, from 2019 to 2023, according to the database, including 5 surgery patients and 117 total “hormone and puberty blocker” patients. There were 768 total prescriptions written. In all, it amounted to $230,784 total submitted charges.

Founded in 1855, CHOP is the nation's first hospital dedicated to pediatric care. It is a nonprofit institution that provides a range of medical services, including primary care, specialty care, and research. The hospital is affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania and operates several satellite locations throughout the Philadelphia region.

Neferiti A. Greene formerly served on the Board of Directors for the Womens Sports Foundation, and is a former collegiate lacrosse player herself. Greene is also president of the Science and Diagnostics division of Mars Petcare, a pet healthcare and nutrition company.

Women's Sports Foundation "is dedicated to creating leaders by providing girls access to sports," according to its website. The organization advocates for transgender athlete "access to locker rooms, showers, and toilet facilities appropriate for their gender identity."

CHOP has operated the “Gender & Sexuality Development Clinic” since 2014. The clinic "offers medical care and mental health support for gender nonconforming, gender expansive and transgender children and youth up to age 21 and their families," according to the CHOP website.

UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh (UPMC) was the only other Pennsylvania hospital to make the group’s “Dirty Dozen” list, seeing 28 “sex change patients,” including 4 surgery patients and 24 total “hormone and puberty blocker patients.” There were 123 total prescriptions written at UPMC, with $5,850 in total charges. 

In all, hospitals in Pa. saw 822 minors who were “sex change patients,” including 316 total surgery patients. These Pa. hospitals administered “hormone and puberty blockers” to 518 total children, and wrote 3,469 prescriptions. In all, it totalled $6,032,103 in total submitted charges.

Do No Harm said the database “catalogs pediatric sex change-related services, including surgeries, cross-sex hormones, and puberty blockers, at U.S.-based medical facilities between 2019 and 2023.”

Chloe Cole, a senior fellow at Do No Harm, said the database “proves the lies from the medical establishment and radical politicians who argue that cases like mine are rare.”

A 20-year-old woman who said that she had “gender dysphoria” was given “puberty blockers,” testosterone and had a double mastectomy at age 12, Cole has since “de-transitioned” and supports bans on the chemical castration of minors. 

“The stats in this database represent thousands of kids who are being treated like Guinea pigs for unproven, and sometimes dangerous, medical experiments,” said Cole. “I hope politicians and parents alike use this database to see where these treatments are happening and protect their children from being rushed into irreversible, life-altering treatments.”

Nationally, 13,994 children received sex change related treatments between 2019 and 2023, according to Do No Harm’s database. This includes 5,747 sex change surgeries performed on children, and 62,682 hormone and puberty blockers prescriptions written for 8,579 pediatric patients. 

“At least $119,791,202 made from sex change treatments performed on minors,” reported the organization.
