Random question about doctors visits...

I was wondering if anyone knows the laws regarding patient confidentiality in minors. I recently started going to a new doctor and she made me get blood work done to check for certain diseases that can only be acquired in a certain way, and my father does not know that I have committed the actions that put me at risk for these diseases.

Will my doctor share my results with my dad at my next doctors visit?

You should telephone your doctor's office. They'll tell you what you need to know.
