How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- remedy for physician’s violation of patient’s privacy is cause of action against physician, not exclusion of evidence at trial
- exclusion of the testimony of a treating physician who had participated in an unauthorized ex parte discussion with defense counsel is too severe; proper remedy is a separate action against the physician for breach of confidentiality
