If I doctor performed a cancer screening on me, for free and without me asking, then yes — as a matter of courtesy I would still expect that doctor to tell me if he found cancer, rather than reading about it on his blog later.
That is legally allowed as part of studies, to which a patient must agree after being proposed. Otherwise, it is illegal.

But that would never happen, so the point is moot.
I have known doctors and lawyers and many others to do work pro-bono
Without the patient or client asking?
