I would think doctor offices would ask what the gender assigned at birth is on the intake paperwork. I suppose not every employee will look at it and just assume, though. This reminds me of the database software I used at my job before having M, F, Trans, and GNC as options. It always annoyed me because the only reason you'd need to know if someone were trans is for medical purposes, and if that's the case you'd need to know whether they're MTF or FTM; you can't assume gender from a person's name. I always just put M or F for trans patients since it wasn't a field where gender was medically relevant.
