Background

William J. “Will” Malone was born in July 1977. Malone earned a medical degree from NYU Grossman School of Medicine in 2003.

Activism

Malone is critical of current medical consensus about trans healthcare for minors:

Dr. William Malone, an adolescent and adult endocrinologist from Twin Falls, said he wasn’t taking a position for or against the bill, but spoke critically of the prescribing of hormones to children for gender issues. Malone acknowledged that national physician organizations support the treatments in question, but he said those societies, including the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics, have been “ideologically captured.”
