The HIPPA law states that NO PERSON is allowed to share your medical information with anyone except for you. This means that your doc must not discuss your medical information with your boss, with the state or anyone else, without your prior WRITTEN consent.

If you feel that the medial office you visit is too open with your information, you can request a consult to file a formal complaint.
