No, I think the reason he went to his private doctor is that he didn't want the matter to become public or the PCB aware of it. Agree with you on patient/doctor confidentiality.
actually SA's going to his private doctor, raised all the eye brows at PCB's and Media side, that's what led PCB to make stupid comments about him last week...
any how the situation is all bad for PCB more than SA.. The press release and words used are so humiliating to any board or individual.
