OK, let's talk about Nazi doctors
I think Eliza is pulling her punches on this subject a little.
The 'all Terfs are Nazi's' attempted slur is one that should attract deeper analysis. It is generally applied to anyone who isn't a TRA. We perhaps shouldn't be surprised by it, President Vladimir Putin has employed the 'Nazi' slur against The Ukraine, proclaiming it to be a Nazi state, though President Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy being born of Jewish parents does rather pose a problem with that line.
Likewise the difficulty in trying to assert that gender-critical women, mostly identified as leftist (the groups Women's Place in the UK and WoLF - Women's Liberation Front - in the US are decidedly Leftist) have suddenly become out-and-out National Socialists, routinely leaves observers a little confused.
Do these 'Nazi's' for instance espouse the values and beliefs inherent of National Socialism? Such as obedience to The Führer (died 1945) and the National Socialist Racial Ideology and Völkisch movement? In any writing, speeches, Twitter or other social media postings, demonstration banners or any other form of media, have any gender critical women or other supporters expressed any love, agreement or obedience to National Socialist ideology? I would have to presume that to be 'Nazi's' they'd have to be doing this near enough every single day.
And let's not forget, TRA's are accusing these, predominantly leftist women, of not being 'like Nazi's' but rather being 'literal Nazi's'.
I reckon that these claims, like those made by President Putin, are investigated thoroughly each time we hear of them.
