What did Blue Fish Pediatrics doctor say? Pediatrician fired after comments on Texas Flood triggers uproar online

Blue Fish Pediatrics recently made headlines after firing one of its employees. Dr. Christina Propst, who joined the Houston-based health center in 2018, was recently criticized for her remarks about a section of Central Texas flood victims. 

According to Mediate, the former Blue Fish Pediatrics physician reportedly wrote about the calamity in a now-deleted Facebook comment from her account, “Chris Tina.” The doctor allegedly emphasized praying for the safety of children, non-MAGA voters, visitors, and pets. At the same time, Propst stated that the “Kerr County MAGA” supporters should “get what they voted for.” 

Based on various screenshots making rounds on X and a report by Mediate, here’s what the alleged original post from Dr. Christina Propst read, 

“May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry. Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.” 

In its recent Facebook and Instagram posts, Blue Fish Pediatrics confirmed that Dr. Propst is no longer employed by the healthcare facility, stating that it was “made aware of a social media comment” made by the physician. The statement continued, 

“As we previously mentioned in our original statement, we strongly condemn the comments that were made in that post. That post does not reflect the values, standards, or mission of Blue Fish Pediatrics. We do not support or condone any statement that politicizes tragedy, diminishes human dignity, or fails to clearly uphold compassion for every child and family, regardless of background or beliefs.” 

The Houston-based pediatric practice had previously distanced itself from the physician’s alleged social media comment and extended its support to the families, who were “grieving, recovering, and searching for hope.” 

The ex-Blue Fish Pediatrics physician has over two decades of clinical experience

Dr. Christina Propst was fired after an alleged controversial Facebook comment of hers went viral on social media. According to her now-removed bio on Blue Fish Pediatrics’ website, the physician moved to Houston in 1998. At the time, she was pursuing her pediatric residency training at hospitals affiliated with Baylor College of Medicine. 

Dr. Propst completed training in 2001 and became a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. According to her Blue Fish bio, she also became board-certified by the American Board of Pediatrics. For the next 17 years, Dr. Propst worked in group practice before joining Blue Fish Pediatrics. 

Before starting her career, the physician married Tristan Ernest Propst, who attended Princeton University with her. According to the New York Times, they married in June 1995. Tristan is the son of an Atlanta-based couple, Dr. Laurie and Judge Floyd E. Propst III. Christina is the daughter of Dr. Jutta E. Greweldinger of New Jersey and Eric L. P. Greweldinger of Belgium. The couple shares two children, born and raised in Houston, Texas. 

According to her bio on Blue Fish Pediatrics, Dr. Christina Propst has also written and co-written multiple “Op-Ed pieces advocating for children and promoting child safety.” She has also been named “Best Pediatrician” in the Bellaire Examiner, based on many reader polls. 

Dr. Propst is not the only notable Houston-based personality who has garnered online backlash. Sade Perkins, a former mayoral appointee and market manager of Freedmen's Town Farmers Market, was also under fire for a recent TikTok aimed at Camp Mystic and parents who send their children there.
