How do I compellingly advocate for my privacy with doctors and other healthcare professionals?

When I try to convince my colleagues, I try to emphasize the benefits and risks. Risks: A service with poor privacy or security can result in broken confidentiality for patient-doctor relationships. This poses a risk for expensive fines from authorities and also single patients may sue you in the future.
Benefits: Choosing the right tools makes the doctor’s practice less vulnerable from big companies changing their terms of service. Often you find better paid services in comparison to (free/paid) data-driven services. Using adequate services makes one also looking more professional to patients.
