Trans Woman Faces Jail After Threatening Top Surgeon Over Gender Reassignment Surgery

In November 2025, a 28-year-old trans woman named Vivienne Taylor is facing jail time for threatening to "batter" a top surgeon who performed her gender reassignment surgery in 2021. The surgeon, Tina Rashid, specializes in genital surgery for trans women at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London.

After Taylor's surgery, she organized a cake to thank Ms. Rashid, but the surgeon later realized there were a large number of photographs of her on Taylor's phone. Taylor was later discharged from the hospital but returned, insisting she be treated by the same surgeon and threatening to kill herself if she wasn't.
