Recording is a good idea, posting on social media is unethical.

Recording is a good idea, posting on social media is unethical.

As mentioned in the article, consent is not necessary to record a conversation you are having. It's not until now that you could spread it around so easily. If I were a physician, I wouldn't mind because it is a good tool for taking time to absorb medical information and many people do better with verbal communication. As a patient I have taken notes, recording would be much easier. I would ask first though. I have taken pictures of x-rays. Medical staff were interested to see how they turned out and thought it was a good idea.
