Transgender Man Sues Catholic Hospital for Rejecting His Surgery
He wants to prevent other transgender patients from having his experience
A transgender man is suing a Catholic hospital in New Jersey after he says
it refused to allow his hysterectomy on religious grounds.
St. Joseph’s allegedly denied Conforti’s surgery despite having a “
patient’s bill of rights” that guarantees medical service without
discrimination based on categories including “gender identity or expression
.” The hospital did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
While Conforti found another hospital to perform his hysterectomy three
months later, he said he felt betrayed and became depressed after St. Joseph
’s denied his surgery. He pointed to the high rate of suicide among
transgender people, saying that an experience like his can make
transitioning even harder. |
