I just found this "policy" online for Columbia University:

Outside of these areas, a |
I have to admit, the last paragraph got me…"if, in the physicians
judgment, revealing the medical information would have a negative impact on the
patient/physician relationship." So, they are protecting the relationship
they have with the patient, but they do not care if they are destroying the
relationship between the patient and the parents. I have heard countless times
from teens regarding a change in their relationship with their parents because
of an abortion the parents do not know about. The minor may be distant or
withdraw without the parent knowing why. The parent sees their child distant,
or depressed and cannot figure out why the relationship has changed. Wonder if
their "mental health counseling" includes post abortion trauma….
I have never seen it worded this way before..at least you have to give the
credit for honesty…
