How does the whole “what you say will not leave this room” thing work with doctors?

Sorry I couldn’t word that better, but I don’t know the proper term. My vocabulary is kind of limited and I have trouble putting thoughts into words.

I always see stuff about this rule, but I don’t really understand it. You can’t talk about what’s said during this appointment, but what does that entail? And what are the exceptions to this rule, because I think there are, right?

Your doctor can’t tell anyone about what you tell them except in very limited exceptions where they are required to report things like immediate risk to life and abuse of children.
