A 10 April 2024 article referred to Dr Aidan Kelly and Dr Heather Wood who formerly worked at the Gender Identity Development Services (GIDS) as ‘doctors who doled out puberty blockers to a generation of vulnerable children’. Drs Kelly and Wood have contacted us to explain that they did not “dole out” puberty blockers and that they practiced in line with NHS England Protocols. We accept that they assessed patients as part of a multidisciplinary team. As clinical psychologists, they did not prescribe any medication and we take this opportunity to apologise for any contrary impression.
