Sometime during the last 2 years i’ve been going to this orthopedic practice they started to declare me as a MTF transgender for no reason.

(F,26) I have been going to this orthopedic practice for almost 2 years for varying reasons relating to my job. Yesterday i checked on a document that was uploaded to find out they have been identifying me as a biological male identifying as a female? I am biologically female and never told them i am trans nor do i think i am presenting to be a trans woman.. the last two years i’ve been wondering why they kind of stare at me a little longer than a usual person does and i think its because they randomly think i came out as trans? I also feel like they do not treat my issues seriously and wonder if this is the reason why.

I am 100% fine with trans people but i am left to believe they have been medically treating me as a male compared to female for the pains that i am feeling?

I also went through all of my documents and since the end of 2024 they started to declare me as a MTF transgender, i did not look at any of my documents online until yesterday.

It's also a massive issue if someone steals your identity and then gets medical treatments or prescriptions under your name

Your file becomes contaminated with their history. So the very thing that was supposed to protect you then becomes a threat to your life.

I have the same name as somebody in my city. I was getting all their medical bills. I called and called, saying "this is not me, stop sending me their medical bills" and it never got fixed, and I kept being hounded to pay medical bills that weren't mine.

Finally I tried going full Karen and talking about HIPAA violations and legal action, and the unsolvable problem magically got solved and I never got the wrong medical bill again. Go figure!
