No there isn't. Anybody that young receiving hormonal treatments are recieving purbety blockers, which is a very legitimate medical use (for both cis and trans children) as early onset of puberty can have detrimental health effects. You would not receive hormones until you are mid-to-late teens, and have been undergoing other gender-confirming care up to that point. It takes a long time to get hormones.
If this was an American doctor, and you would like to make an accusation about a doctor that definitely didn't happen, you can absolutely report them to their state's medical board, but making fake accusations will get you sued, so have fun.
At what age should puberty be paused? Because you can't really pause it after it happens.
Okay.
Why do you not think there is no reverse path? Do you think blocking puberty with medication results in it being a permanent condition?
As far as looking to detransition? That is an extreme rarity on top of the original rarity of being trans in the first place.

0.5% adults in the U.S. are transgender. 1% of them regret transitioning. You are talking about a very, very, very small number of people.
