Patient Confidentiality & Data Protection
Your medical records are held on computer and the practice is registered under the Data Protection Act. Access to medical records is available subject to legal limitations. You can request access to your medical record (there is a minimum charge of £10.00 in some circumstances). We ask you for personal information so that you can receive appropriate care and treatment. However, for the effective functioning of a multi-disciplinary team it is sometimes necessary that medical information about you is shared between members of the practice team.
