A highly qualified Australian psychiatrist who expressed concerns about gender treatments for adolescents has been sanctioned by the nation’s medical regulator and is now banned from posting his thoughts on the topic to social media.

Queensland’s Dr. Andrew Amos is barred from seeing patients and restricted from online comments on gender treatments for children after the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and the Medical Board of Australia objected to his stance.
