I would expect my doctor to tell me, my personal physician. An anesthesiologist is someone you are not likely to have any kind of relationship with and should exercise some discretion.

Relationship or not, I just don't see the big deal.

And considering the effects of the drugs, how do we know that it was actually even said? Or said to the patient, and not to someone else in the room?

The whole thing is just silly.
