Depends on what phrase and context its being used in since this is in the health section I'm basing it on health - If you say something that is personal / embarrassing to a Doctor / Nurse they will assure you that it is confidential meaning they wont tell friends or parents or others in the workplace if they do however this is breaking the Doctor/Patient contract which could result in you suing them
