'I'm sure you're aware of some of the things that have been going on at your work lately,' he says in the video, which Rufo shared to X.
When she replies that she is, the agent then asks if he could come inside to 'let me do my song and dance.'
From there, Sivadge claims the agents began to threaten her.
'They threatened me,' she told Rufo. 'They promised they would make life difficult for me if I was trying to protect the leaker. They said I was not safe at work and claimed that someone at my workplace had given my name to the FBI.'
Sivadge is now the second employee at Texas Children's Hospital to make such claims.
Last year, Dr. Ethan Haim - a surgeon who
completed his residency at the hospital - leaked documents showing that TCH staff had provided puberty blockers and other sex-change treatments to children, even after hospital officials said they had stopped the procedures in March 2022.
Just one month after leaking the documents, Haim said he received a knock on his door from FBI agents who handed him a letter identifying him as a 'potential target' in a federal probe.'
'I was given a target letter signed by a federal prosecutor that stated I was being criminally investigated for a case regarding medical records,' he said.
Haim now argues that such tactics are a 'blatant attempt at political intimidation,' claiming the prosecution is 'driven by a highly ideological division within the Department of Health and Human Services.'
Vanessa Sivadge claims that after she blew the whistle on the Texas Children's Hospital, FBI agents showed up at her door and intimidated her.
