Once the lawsuit is filed regarding the doctor's conduct to the patient, the door is open as to that information becoming admissable in court. As to whether such information would be sealed from the public, that would actually be the judge's decision and based on facts and circumstances as the judge saw them.

Prior to the case being filed, the question of how confidentiality should be handled is actually a question for the health care professionals, and I trust Willow and Cerek have answered this well.
