Gender Identity Disorder: The Untold Stories | Gregory Mak | TEDxCUHK
Transgenders - whilst a subject of more discourse in the modern day, many people remain unaware of this topic, or their needs. Dr. Gregory Mak’s speech focuses on his experience in treating patients with Gender Identity Disorder - from his initial motivations to enter a rather stigmatized field, the people he has helped in his journey, to the social, biological and psychological treatments to alleviate these individual’s gender dysphoria - he provides a medical insight into this condition that outlines the journey from lost, to found, and everything in between. He outlines how, before we can provide adequate social support, we must view these people under a new light - just as he did, all these years ago.
Dr. Gregory Mak first graduated from MBBS in HKU in 2003, and has since then arduously pursued his interest in the psychiatric field, earning his Masters in Research in Medicine in the same year and qualifying as a psychiatrist in 2011 upon receiving his FHKCPsych and FHKAM (Psychiatry). Whilst he specializes in helping a variety of patients with psychiatric disorders, he is most well-known as one of the foremost experts in the diagnosis of transgender individuals (Gender Identity Disorder), hoping to shed light on this still very stigmatized group of individuals from a psychiatric perspective. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
