I see it both ways. If it was an issue then, not saying anything was criminal negligence, endangering the USA citizens. Same as Rs covering for the current executive, same as staffers covering for Congress persons.
Confidentiality is not absolute for medical professionals, they can and have been forced to testify. It’s not as absolute as it is with lawyers or clergy, which also have some limits.
At the time the cabinet and vp, oversight committees, possibly the AG or IG if they weren’t complicit in a cover up. Also it’s about the president, being deep throat 2 would be acceptable.

Ok. Who does he report to in this instance. The House Oversight Committee, or Trump?
If the physician does either of those he’s breaking confidentiality and that’s a big no-no.
