Dr. Eithan Haim of Dallas had faced four counts for wrongfully disclosing the individually identifiable health information of underage patients at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston.

Eithan Haim identified himself as the "whistleblower" who shared confidential information about Texas Children's providing transgender care for minors with a conservative activist.

The doctor claimed he was reporting "child abuse" by handing the minors' medical records over to rightwing media.

Charges have been dismissed against a Texas doctor accused of illegally leaking to the media that a hospital was secretly performing transgender surgery on kids.

The decision by federal prosecutors came at a time when President Trump was rolling back protections for transgender people.

Eithan Haim was accused of leaking health records of patients at Texas Children’s Hospital. Haim, who calls himself a whistleblower, had pleaded not guilty.

U.S. District Judge David Hittner accepted prosecutors’ request to get rid of the four felony counts against Dr. Eithan Haim, 34, who was accused of accessing patient records from Texas Children’s Hospital under false pretenses, The New York Post reported.

U.S. prosecutors on Friday dropped charges against a Texas doctor and self-described whistleblower on transgender care for minors, who was accused of illegally gaining access to records about patients not under his care at Texas Children's Hospital.
