Recently I had an apointment with a urologist lined up to see ablout getting an orchi due to medical issues with them and the fact I am MTF kinda gives me an added reason to have them removed.
Anyways my apointment was canceled 2 days before the apointment without a reason given. When I pressed the issue I was told 'the doctor does not work with Transgenders'.
I was livid.
This is simply discrimination, 'specially given that you have a medical basis for their removal on top of the trans thing, is there any legal action you can take?
I have no clue. I do live in Washington state where T's are protected people but I do not know if it trumps a doctors right to refuse service.
If you have a life treating need and he refused, you can get him. But If not then just move on.
Dr. Nguyen here in Portland does them, right in his office. Requires two letters.

I have talked to him and from what I gather bassed on my medical history I will not need letters. A referal from my doctor for the issues I have should suffice.
But that would come out of my pocket as he does not accept medicare.
I've heard similar crap about doctors that do BA. So friggin annoying, it shouldn't be legal IMHO
