State appeals court says transsexual man can sue Mercy San Juan Medical Center for refusing to perform hysterectomy
The 1st District Court of Appeal in San Francisco ruled that a Sacramento-area transgender man can sue Mercy San Juan Medical Center over the last-minute cancellation of his hysterectomy, overturning a lower-court ruling that dismissed the case.
Dignity Health, which operates Mercy San Juan, arranged for Evan Minton to have the procedure at Methodist Hospital in south Sacramento within 72 hours of the denial, court records state. The procedure was canceled, the lawsuit stated, after Minton mentioned to a nurse that he is transgender.
In his appeal court decision, Presiding Justice Stuart R. Pollak stated: Without determining the right of Dignity Health to provide its services in such cases at alternative facilities, as it claims to have done here, we agree that plaintiffs complaint alleges that Dignity Health initially failed to do so and that its subsequent rectification of its denial, while likely mitigating plaintiffs damages, did not extinguish his cause of action for discrimination.

Easy Fix, throw it right back in their face:
This Hospital is now CLOSED to mitigate any further damages due to a Lawsuit. The Hospital will NOT Re-Open until this case has been resolved. Any questions see Justice Stuart R. Pollak
What exactly is a hysterectomy on a genetic male who “identifies as female”.
Is that a “reversal” of what was physically done to make some of his body parts look female?? Somehow I don’t think that’s the case, so I can only scratch my head wondering exactly what they do mean.
Fake man == mentally deranged woman.
At issue is a woman with mental health problems who wants to have her lady-parts removed so she can pretend to be a man.
Misuse of language. She is a woman, not an any-kind-of-man.
Mea culpa.
Sorry for my misunderstanding. I thought the person was a genetic male who “identifies as female”, not as the case really is, of a genetic female who “identifies as male”.
So, in THAT case, I guess the hysterectomy is part of “transgender” surgery, to mutilate HER female organs (I guess because pretending to a male is more difficult when you menstruate every month).
I understand the hospital’s position against mutilating the woman’s body, just to satisfy her obsession to pretend to be male.
Oh what a web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.
[[[At issue is a woman with mental health problems who wants to have her lady-parts removed so she can pretend to be a man.]]]
That’s just a lunatic asking to be physically mutilated by a health care facility. Stuff like this should warrant involuntary committal.
That a thing like this is required to be taken seriously is an indicator of how sick our society has become.
Okay by this logic when a muzzie brings in his daughter to be mutilated the hospital has to do it.
After the hysterectomy the should keep the uterus and throw the rest away. It would probably contribute more to society.
We sue have a lot of sick people around nowadays Too bad they didnt just wheel him/her/it straight into the mental ward. Might have actually helped it
So they mean a biological female.
So you can sue because a hospital refuses to perform a risky and unnecessary procedure, for which, if it is botched they can be sued, and the lack of medical necessity will be prima facia evidence of negligence.
Q: If a doc is allowed to refuse to do a cosmetic boob job on a patient for any reason, why can’t a doc refuse to do similar in this case?
To Marshmellow:
You’re disgusting!
But Sean Hannity says that RUSSIA is the evil power, and our enemy.
I’ll tell you something, a lawsuit like this wouldn’t get far in Russia.
The ones who choose NOT to have the hysterectomies, OTOH, can enjoy yapping about “men who menstruate” and “pregnant men.”
So it’s a win-win for their little genderbending selves & a no-win for us “phobes” no matter what they do.
The point being, not to settle on an identity & find inner peace, but rather to continually confuse & harass the hated normies.
