My friend is very sick and I'm trying to help her find the best treatment, but she doesn't want to share her medical records with me. Is there any way to access someone else's medical records without their consent?

No, it is not possible to access someone else's medical records without their consent.  Even with consent, doctors may require a power of attorney or other legal document to release the records. The only exception is in cases where the patient is minors or are incapacitated and cannot make decisions for themselves. In those cases, doctors mayrelease the records to a guardian or caretaker with proof of guardianship or power of attorney documents.
