"People who hear my story are flabbergasted, quite frankly, that this could happen. It's insane." –Dr. Paul Church

(Boston, MA)—A well-loved and respected doctor with a background in sexual-risk behaviors has been expelled from one of the United States' most prestigious and top-ranked medical centers after he raised evidence-based health risk concerns over the center's decision to endorse and celebrate the homosexual lifestyle.

Urologist Dr. Paul Church, a 65-year-old grandfather of 6, was expelled from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) in Boston, Massachusetts, in March on the grounds that he had violated BIDMC's "established standards of professional conduct" by using the center's electronic information system "to communicate your unsolicited views about homosexuality that were offensive to BIDMC staff."

"The MEC [Medical Executive Committee] has recommended imposition of disciplinary action, in the form of revocation of your appointment to the Medical Staff," the March 30 letter of expulsion singed by BIDMC President and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Kevin Tab stated.

Church called the medical center "so indoctrinated with a worldview" supportive of the LGBTQ agenda that it sees this movement as "beyond reproach," even to the extent of viewing someone as a bigot and culpable of misconduct charges for raising legitimate criticism about the center's promotion of this movement and its activities.

"People who hear my story are flabbergasted, quite frankly, that this could happen. It's insane," he told LifeSiteNews.

LifeSiteNews contacted BIDMC to comment for this story, but received no response by publication.

Censored
The medical center, which is also a Harvard Medical School Teaching Hospital, has been ranked for years as a "Best Hospital" by U.S. News & World Report and is described as "one of the nation's preeminent academic medical centers, committed to providing excellence in clinical care, teaching, research and community outreach."

Dr. Church, a member of the Harvard Medical School faculty, has worked as an urologist at the center for nearly 30 years, conducting research on prostate and bladder cancer. He has also offered his medical talents to the poor on numerous occasions during volunteer missions to Mexico and Africa.

It was 11 years ago that Church began to experience censorship and suppression from BIDMC officials, reported Mass Resistance. At this time, Church and other like-minded colleagues repeatedly raised concern with officials over the center's decision to not only endorse the homosexual lifestyle by hosting an annual "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Achievement Award ceremony," but to involve staff in LGBTQ events including participation in Boston's annual "Gay Pride Week."

"The evidence is irrefutable that behaviors common within the homosexual community are unhealthy and high risk for a host of serious medical consequences, including STD's, HIV and AIDS, anal cancer, hepatitis, parasitic intestinal infections, and psychiatric disorders," Church submitted to officials via the center's communication system after receiving an LGBT-related communication.

"Life expectancy is significantly decreased as a result of HIV/AIDS, complications from the other health problems, and suicide. This alone should make it reprehensible to the medical community, who has an obligation to promote and model healthy behaviors and lifestyles."
Church called it "all together inappropriate" for BIDMC to "endorse, affirm, or encourage the behaviors 'celebrated' by Gay Pride Week."
"This action again jeopardizes the credibility of BIDMC as a healthcare institution and dishonors a large proportion of its community who continue to hold to the conviction that homosexuality is unnatural and immoral," he wrote.
