Dr. Javad Sajan, a Seattle-area plastic surgeon specializing in gender-affirming procedures, is facing threats and harassment following an online campaign accusing him of performing surgeries on dozens of children. Sajan denies the allegations, stating that the claims are false and that his patients undergo a thorough evaluation process before surgery. He believes he has been targeted due to his large social media following.

Sajan has built a practice and a huge social media following with tens of thousands of followers on Instagram and TikTok, and a website that highlights multiple documentaries about his patients, some of which have gone through transition., Sajan can be seen looking into the camera, putting on scrubs, and walking into an operation room with the caption “Doing all my TRANS surgeries before Trump tries to stop me.
“They say things that aren't even remotely close to the truth,” Sajan told KOMO News. “These people are saying I've operated on a 7-year-old. I've never done surgery on that. The numbers they're saying are far from realistic. When the patients come to us, we don't just do surgery on them. They have to go through a process, and the number is very, very small. I think they've singled me out just because I have a presence on social media.
“I didn't give the form personally to patients. It was a part of people's intake packet,” Sajan said. “The form was said by the Attorney General's Office, through a civil action that we can't use it, and we stopped using it.” “Do No Harm” declined an interview request on the topic, but issued the following statement to KOMO News:
