国家保健制度审查发现,由于系统失灵,联合王国成人性别诊所面临长达15年的等待期。 UK adult gender clinics face up to 15-year waits due to systemic failures, NHS review finds.

根据国家卫生署医务主任David Levy博士的审查,英格兰成人性别诊所的等待时间可以达到15年,而无需紧急改革。 Waiting times for adult gender clinics in England could reach 15 years without urgent reforms, according to a review by NHS medical director Dr. David Levy. 报告发现存在广泛问题,包括长期拖延、评估不一致、沟通不畅和缺乏关于病人结果的数据。 The report found widespread problems including long delays, inconsistent assessments, poor communication, and a lack of data on patient outcomes. 诊所往往缺乏基本的质量保证、临床审计以及保健服务提供者之间的协调。 Clinics often lacked basic quality assurance, clinical audits, and coordination across healthcare providers. Levy博士称这种情况“令人无法接受”,他引述了工作人员愤怒、不尊重文化和对改善的抵制等说法。 Dr. Levy called the situation “unacceptable,” citing staff burnout, disrespectful cultures, and resistance to improvement. 审查建议诊所至少在将护理转移给初级保健提供者之前一年管理荷尔蒙处方,并强调需要更好地收集数据、监督和支持以病人为中心的护理。 The review recommended clinics manage hormone prescriptions for at least a year before transferring care to primary providers and emphasized the need for better data collection, oversight, and support for patient-centered care.
