On a related point, would a physician be willing to perform gender reassignment surgery on a minor? Obviously, parental permission would be a requirement (just as it would be for any medical procedure), so I'm just wondering what the ethical implications are in performing such a significant procedure on an individual who is still growing and maturing. Some of the trans people that I'm friends with don't want to fully transition (for various reasons). What might sound great to a 15 year old may not sound good for a 25 year old. Or it might still continue to sound good 10 years later, and a decade has been lost living with the wrong biological sex.
