Has anyone been treated differently in the hospital....

I have a friend who had surgery and the hospital staff was really good to her. Then when her girlfriend came to visit and give her comfort all of a sudden some of the hospital staff changed. Some were great and continued to do an excellent job however, some completely changed and began to be brief in speaking with her, abrupt and quiet. She and I couldn't imagine a reason why they completely changed other than they found out my friend was gay (not like she announced it but it was obvious, her girlfriend held her hand, stroked her hair, gave her a kiss on the cheek, you know what spouses do to comfort their loved one). Now I am worried....Has anyone had any problems like that while they were in the hospital or doctor's office? I was just curious if anyone out there is/was worried about this too.....Thanks :)
