Parents and custodians may share in the confidentiality of a minor. Generally this requires further discussion.

Frequently, immediate family members will call and ask for information. If, in good faith, we believe your family member already knows that you are being seen at our clinic, we will generally acknowledge that fact. Beyond that, we usually ask that information for family pass through you or are passed on in your presence.
