We ask you for personal information so that you can receive appropriate care and treatment. This information is recorded on computer and we are registered under the Data Protection Act. The practice will ensure that patient confidentiality is maintained at all times by all members of the practice team. 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.
Computers
Our practice is fully computerised. Under the Data Protection Act you may view your computer records for which there will be a charge to cover the cost incurred in extracting them from the computer. Please ask at reception.
