Case overview

Good Law Project is suing a hospital that refused to operate on a woman just because she’s trans.

In May 2025, Lisa* was booked in for surgery to have her testes removed due to chronic pain. But a week before the operation was going to take place, the hospital called to say the surgery was cancelled.
