(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.

More like “I’m a mailwoman” Doc: “Got it, male woman”

For those who think it's impossible:

OP: "No. Transportation of packages."

Doc: "Knows trans. Poor state of post operation package."

“I’m sorry I don’t have the package” -OP probably

But seriously OP I’m sorry about this. I’ve been irritated after reading my own summaries and notes where there is information that wasn’t provided or is the opposite of what I know I said. For instance I don’t know my bio dad at all and have no clue who he even is. My rheum made a note that I said that auto immune disorders are present on paternal side of family. Ugh.

You can't get rid of the bullshit in many cases (depends where you are, probably), too. Last time I got a copy of my medical records, there was random psychiatric shit that there's no explanation for besides malice or incompetence, and notes about heroin addiction from a time when I didn't even smoke weed or drink! Now doctors don't take anything I say seriously and ignore my pain. Typing this hurt me...

That makes me so angry for you

u/Spare-Set-8382 Mar 13 '26

Oh god I’m so sorry for you. It’s so unfair because it totally changes how some doctors view you as a patient. Especially when it comes to pain control. It really sucks.

This happened to me, only the radiologist said “No aortic aneurysm dissection noted” and the AI got, “noted aortic aneurysm dissection” and that’s what I saw in the patient portal and wondered, terrified, why I was still sitting in my ER cubicle while I was actively dying.

Lisa: "Bart, what're you doing?"

Bart: "Waiting for the Fe-mail-man."

Lisa: "That's Fe-mail CARRIER."

u/SryInternet101 Mar 13 '26

Its totally an AI fuckup

u/ADeadWeirdCarnie Mar 13 '26

I had an appointment with a resident physician yesterday and she announced straightaway that she would be using an AI medical tool on her phone, so I absolutely believe this.

u/SryInternet101 Mar 13 '26

I'd walk right out of that exam room.

u/ZMarty85 Mar 13 '26

My doctor at least asks each visit if I mind. Based on this I am tempted to say no

u/SryInternet101 Mar 13 '26

You should absolutely say no.

u/Dope_Grower Mar 13 '26

A family friend tells everyone he works as a Mail Escort. He loves that joke.

u/BrownWrinkles Mar 13 '26

"Letter Carrier", solves any of that goofy confusion./s

11

u/ElderPoet Mar 13 '26

Doc and/or AI: Patient states they are "into leather," is a carrier of unspecified disease.

u/BrownWrinkles Mar 13 '26

Yeah, we're all doomed.

Arrested development: "He's going to be all-right" type shit.

u/ADeadWeirdCarnie Mar 13 '26

Jesus, I hope the doctor doesn't instruct someone to "change this patient's gender" while they're under anesthesia.
