– Jillian Hall recently shared an embarrassing story on Twitter after an incident at The Pain Management Group in Hendersonville, Tennessee.
Came across a situation that really upset me today. Was at a dr appt and walked out of the back to see staff looking at a large computer screen with myself pulled up on google featuring a mugshot from an awful time in my life. I immediately felt shocked & violated…

This dr’s office has all of my personal info. I’ve never spoken with the receptionists about being a wrestler and this was very embarrassing to me. I’m not sure how to handle the situation but was brought to tears with embarrassment and anger! They had no good excuse to do this..
— Jillian Hall (@Jillianhall1) December 1, 2018
Since that I’ve had a very emotional day. I spoke with a PA about it but she completely covered for them which angered me more. I don’t know if I should let it go or file a formal complaint. It’s an awful feeling not knowing what “professionals” r doing with your private info.
— Jillian Hall (@Jillianhall1) December 1, 2018
It was a private dr appointment. That’s unprofessional and after seeing all of my medical history and private info, they have no business doing that there! If I could see the screen, who else saw it in there? It is def a violation!
