Do doctors have to release medical information to the parents even if they are a minor?

Most doctors are actually adults. You must be thinking of that TV show.
A more detailed answer would be: If the patient is a minor, the patient's parents or guardians would sign the Authorization of the Release of Medical Records form. If the parent or guardian of the minor signed this form, and grant permission to release the medical records, the physician, then, can do so. The parents/guardians have the right to access the minor's medical records, but cannot keep the original record as it belongs to the Maker (in this case, the physician).
