The office manager, Rebecca, at this office took copies of mine and another patients medical records. She kept them in her posession for 3 months, at that time she threw the copies of our medical records at the other patient along with a nasty comment.

This office manager, Rebecca Gianfortune, does not have, and never will have, a release signed by me authorizing her to give copies of my medical records to anyone, other than my attorney. She never had a legitimate reason, nor a signed, valid release authorizing her to keep copies of my medical, financial, and insurance information. She certainly did not have a valid, signed release authorizing her to give copies of my private, and protected information to the other patient. I thank heaven the other patient contacted me, and gave me the copies of my records.

Although Vince Hoffart was informed of his officemanagers conduct, he has never reported this to the appropriate state and federal agencies that oversee medical privacy rights. He has also never sent me a notification of the fact that my medical records were inappropriately accessed, taken by his office manager, and disclosed to another patient.

I find his conduct very offensive. His office managers conduct very well could have affected my insurance claim, and the legal process they were being used for. I find his actions to be extremely unethical as he has known his office manager has done this before, and has admitted this to the other patient. His actions are extremely unprofessional in that he refuses to comply with all state and federal laws regarding this.

I find his conduct at some of my appointments to be very unprofessional. He would often direct me to move to his AO table so he could "tap that atlas". As he is old enough to be my father, this was creepy to say the least. He also joked about being able to see where some of his patients had piercings- normally covered by clothing and very private in nature. He even uses this "tap that atlas" as a web address. Disgusting!
