My father is stubborn and took himself off some pills and made a threat and he ended up in ER because of that. From there, trying to find out information about his appointments and he wants to go along which is fine, but this time here when I told him that I had just one question about a specific test the cancer doctor had and can I ask that he said okay. But then when the doctor comes in and my father tells him that I have a question and then I have to leave I proceed to ask that question. Then the doctor asks Dad well I have to ask him how he's doing first so the answer to the question that I had never got answered before my father basically kicked me out of the office in front of the doctor embarrassing me to know and making me feel like I am nothing. Has anybody gone through that?
Your father's medical information is confidential. If he isn't happy to share it with you, that's the end of the discussion.
I agree it can be frustrating (see above) but I don't see why it should be embarrassing? And I'm absolutely certain you won't be the first concerned child the doctor has seen ordered out of the room by his patient :)
