Woman denied cancer treatment for "transphobic" views and discharged from future care

I'd very much like to hear the other side of this story.

I'd especially like to know how she's being denied cancer treatment when the clinic in question doesn't offer oncology services in the first place.

I would bet my life savings this situation is not entirely as it presented here.

In her letter, Barbera requested a telephone appointment to "discuss how I may access your medical care without walking under a banner that seeks to negate all I am".
However, the situation intensified this year after Barbera tried to leave a message for her doctor about blood test results. The receptionist urged her to make an appointment instead. Not wanting to add another medical appointment to her calendar, Barbera refused. The receptionist allegedly got frustrated and "hung up on" Barbera, according to Barbera's comments in the Reduxx report.
Barbera assumed the receptionist was being difficult because of her stance on the hospital's transgender flag display.
"I asked, guessing 'did I hurt the trans person's feelings?' And the receptionist took offense to the question, asking 'what did you say' slowly and with great emphasis," Barbera told Reduxx, adding that she ended the call after the comment.
Barbera alleged that a few weeks after her interaction with the receptionist, OHSU sent her correspondence alerting her that they would be dropping her medical care as of July 29.

Barbera is clearly an idiot

NHS doctors treat all kinds of rude, annoying people, and those who think/vote differently from themselves. No idea how it works with the American health system though.

Yes a massive trans flag is sending a message to female patients, but there are less confrontational ways of approaching it.

You pay for treatment over there so they can obviously refuse customers who are disrespectful to their staff. Why would an argument over a flag at the door be the hill you literally choose to die on when you are accessing lifesaving treatment?

There is being gender critical and there is being a twat. This individual seems to fall into the latter category

refusing to enter the building because there was a trans flag there is just ridiculous

She would have had the same treatment if she had said she wouldn't be treated by a black doctor ... none

She is transphobic not gender critical and it is not ok

It's possible - but it's not possible to garner that from the article.

Unless disagreeing with gender ideology or pointing out that males as a sex class represent a threat to women, is regarded as "abusive to staff". Which is the implication based on the information presented in the article.

What hyperbole! She isn't being killed, she refused appointments because of a flag outside, I am GC but a flag wouldn't stop me receiving the medical care I need.

She sounds like an incredibly difficult person to deal with from that article. Her use of the worn N#I probably didn't help her case and from reading the article it was she who refused appointments.*

Are you frigging serious? What can of moral parsings do you have to engage in to justify killing a person who does not adhere to an ideology?

She sounds like a nasty piece of work.

I'd have told her to go elsewhere for treatment too.

So she was denied cancer treatment at a place that doesn’t offer oncology services

right

This is crazy, if true. Doctors regularly treat actual fascists without it compromising their care.

How did this happen?

If you read the article she was abusive to staff and failed to turn up for appointments.
Staff shouldn't have to put up with abuse in their working day

Seems pointing out that 'male violence toward women is undimmed by any level of transition' is now abusive misandry transphobia.

I'm not convinced that was the only reason. She sounds like hard work in general.
