WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina (LifeSiteNews) – A medical student who bragged about intentionally harming a patient who mocked her “pronoun pin” is on leave, according to Wake Forest University.

“I had a patient I was doing a blood draw on see my pronoun pin and loudly laugh to the staff ‘She/Her? Well of course it is! What other pronouns even are there? It?’ I missed his vein so he had to get stuck twice,” Kychelle Del Rosario wrote on Twitter on March 29. Del Rosario’s tweet came in response to another user who wrote about “transphobia” in medical care.

The North Carolina university took notice after someone flagged the tweet for them.

“This student’s tweet does not reflect how Wake Forest University School of Medicine treats patients and provides patient care,” the school’s account wrote on March 29. “We are taking measures to address this with the student.”

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This student’s tweet does not reflect how Wake Forest University School of Medicine treats patients and provides patient care. We are taking measures to address this with the student.
