When you join the Practice, we have very little of your past medical record immediately available. This is why we rely on you to tell us about yourself using the registration forms and by attending a New Patient’s Health Check. This is a good opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the services we provide.

When you register with us, the local Health Authority requests your personal medical notes from your previous practice. The time taken for notes to arrive varies considerably, but it usually takes weeks or sometimes months. Before your notes arrive, we keep written and electronic records of your health information, the visits you make, your medication and other such information. When your personal records arrive from your previous GP, we create a summary and amalgamate the old records with those we have made in the meantime.


HOW DO YOU KEEP MY MEDICAL NOTES?
Your records are kept in electronic format on our secure medical computer system. This ensures it is up to date and acessible to all our Healthcare team
