McHale asks why a doctor can be forced to disclose a patient's confidences in court when other professional confidences are protected. She goes on to look at whether doctors keep patients' confidences and the need for statutory reform.
First Published in 2004. Confidentiality in the era of AIDS is a 'buzz-word' in medical practice. But in the court room there is no confidentiality. A doctor can be forced to disclose her patient's confidences. This book asks: Why is this the case? Why are other professional confidential relationships protected in the court room? What is the nature of confidentiality in modern medical practice? Do doctors really keep patient information confidential? Is there a need for statutory reform?

Jean V. McHale is Lecturer in Law at the University of Nottingham.
