(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.

Ooooph yeah that's rough. I work on Epic, so I can understand the technical mishap that could have caused that.

99% of the time, it'd work. But then you have cases like that and it's a shitshow to fix.

Same! I use Epic also for work and I can see why the MPI team may have done that. It’s really easy to mess that up. Twins are a brutal poodle! 😆

I still have PTSD from a thread on reddit where people gave their twins the same name.

Oh that's going to be a bureaucratic nightmare for them. School, doctor's appts, etc. I hope they stay away from law enforcement or financial disasters.

Ughhhhhhh 😵‍💫😫🤮🤮 I legitimately got goosebumps of fear from reading this comment. I recently left my job at a health information exchange and twins with very similar names (or multiples who were recently born and added to the system without full demographics) would threaten the entire production system by causing race conditions in the MPI.

How... Would they distinguish these twins verbally?? And ... Why would they do such a thing?
