Worried about before and after photo privacy

celeste1991
I had a boob job 3 months ago and My surgeon took before and after pictures of my chest for referencing. I am now worried the hospital will use my pictures to upload online. Can they do this without my permission?? Also, I do not remember signing a form to agree for these pictures?!! All I signed was a consent form to give permission to go ahead with the surgery. A week ago I asked my surgeon and he said, no one can see these pictures, not even your family. I am guessing that this is true?
