A transgender woman is suing Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, alleging discrimination after secretly recording her surgical team mocking her gender identity. The lawsuit claims staff misgendered her, changed her medical records from female to male without consent, and made derogatory comments during a tumor removal surgery in March 2022. MSK denies discrimination, arguing the secret recording violated staff privacy, while the patient asserts her rights under New York's LGBTQ Health Care Bill of Rights were violated.
