A patient at Wisconsin's UW Hospital last week filed a civil lawsuit against his physician and the UW Board of Regents after he said the doctor disclosed his HIV-positive status to his mother, reports Madison.com. Patient John Doe, as he is known in court documents, said that physician Christopher Doro called the patient's mother and said his surgery went well and disclosed his HIV status. The patient argued that the physician failed to abide by state law to keep patient records and HIV test results confidential, as well as violated his right to privacy. Patient Doe has since suffered from insomnia and panic attacks and fears that family members will disclose his HIV status to others, according to the article. Article
