Or when he has to explain to his doctors why he is wearing a chest binder, and hope they can be sensitive to his need to keep it on. If his name hasn't yet been legally changed, one would hope that the employees he interacts with regularly would be respectful of his desire to be called by his preferred name. Even in the case of someone who has completely transitioned with all documents changed, but may not be completely passable in their true gender, would any of these hospitals go out of their way to see that a transgender patient is treated with the same level of respect and dignity as any other?

Across the board in our major hospitals here in Orlando, our transgender community is not represented. Florida Hospital's Patient Bill of Rights states: "A patient has the right to impartial access to medical treatment or accommodations, regardless of race, national origin, religion, handicap, or source of payment."

Health Central and Orlando Health follow suit.
