Default for someone / to someone

Hello,

I'm new here, and this is my first post! :wink:
I have a problem how to use for / to + someone correctly in English sentences.

*******************
A. It's very important for students to study English every day.

B. It's important for doctors to know that what patients need.

C. It's important to me that he reads my novels.

Those sentences are all from dictionaries.
I'd like to know if I can use 'for' with the example C as a replacement.

Could you please tell me how I should choose 'to' and 'for' correctly.... ?
Many thanks in advance.

Kumiko
