"I came to know Jeffrey Epstein in my professional capacity as a general plastic surgeon about 10+ years ago,"
"I remember reading news reports about his being charged with sex crimes, but I don't recall if that was before or after I treated any of the patients referred by his office,"
"The documents do not allege wrongdoing by Ting, nor do they call into question the legitimacy or medical necessity of gender-affirming care, which is supported by all major U.S. medical organizations."
Justice Department records released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act show hundreds of emails documenting a yearslong relationship between Dr. Jess Ting and Jeffrey Epstein. The records describe travel to Epstein's private island, visits to his homes, coordination of medical care via Epstein's staff, and direct outreach seeking Epstein's support for research and a new transgender surgery program at Mount Sinai. Ting became surgical director of Mount Sinai's Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery in 2016 and characterized his interactions as limited, noting an initial encounter providing wound care to a referred model. The documents do not allege wrongdoing by Ting or dispute the medical necessity of gender-affirming care.
