Are you pregnant or recently had a baby? If so, you need to calm down before you burst an artery. You are over reacting. You can file a complaint with the feds about his sharing your information with your job, under the HIPAA laws however I don't think he broke any rules. He and your employer have the freedom to disclose information in this situation. But the feds can look into it. He will not lose his medical license, he will be fined.

Your mother and your sister have no business getting into your business so stop talking to them about stuff. Get another doctor, and educate yourself about the privacy laws. That way you will know exactly what to tell them about sharing your medical information. You can look this stuff up yourself online, just google Health Information Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA.
