> I got a copy of my chart from my Pdoc and found out all sorts of horrible things that he said about me and he violated my confidentiality when charted my herb use after guaranteeing that it would stay just between him and I and not go into my chart. AND it was coded and sent to my insurance company. I have never been more devastated and have lost pretty much complete faith in the entire process. I have a new doc now (who is female) but I distrust them all after
How awful! The psychologist I see deliberately does not maintain a complete set of notes so that in case something happens like a divorce lawyer tries to get hold of them there's nothing to give (or at least that's what she told me). I've never asked to see them but we have talked about what's in them and how she uses them. And I always have a notebook available myself to jot things down, but make no effort to keep extensive notes of the session - mostly reminders, assignments, and I also write in advance anything I want to be sure to mention.
