My pdoc has also told me the same thing. I think the whole detrimental / dangerous thing would be, for example, with someone trying to work through serious paranoid delusions ... knowing your diagnosis could I guess feed into the delusion and such.
My pdoc told me that its very rare for them to withold information like that and even if they do you can still ask for a second opinion from other doctors in order to be allowed to see you file.
