That is very odd and if true paints a morbid picture of these detention facilities. It's almost like concentration camps.
The complaint said that the "rate at which the hysterectomies have occurred" at the centre was a "red flag" for Ms Wooten and other nurses.
She alleged about one doctor that "everybody he sees has a hysterectomy", and that he removed the wrong ovary from one young detainee.
"We've questioned among ourselves like, goodness he's taking everybody's stuff out…That's his speciality, he's the uterus collector," Ms Wooten said in the complaint.
One detainee, interviewed by Project South, likened the centre to "an experimental concentration camp", adding: "It was like they're experimenting with our bodies."

I highly doubt the validity of the story. To preform surgery there are multiple safe guards. You need a permit to operate that requires informed consent. The institution I worked at requires medical certified translators. There is a phone service we ascribe to for uncommon foreign languages. The surgeon counsels the patient, the OR nurse discusses what is going on with the patient . Then the anesthesia provider discusses the procedure with the patient. Once the uterus is removed it goes to pathology. To preform a hysterectomy there needs to be a medical indication. Pathology confirms the disease existed that lead to the hysterectomy. It is considered malpractice to preform uanessacry surgery or to coerce someone into surgery.
