Transfer of Medical Records
Transferring Medical Records
The practice acknowledges the right of patients to transfer their care to another doctor or practice. The original records remain the property of the doctor, but a copy will be sent by way of a computer disc or health summary when a request for transfer signed by the patient has been received. When a patient decides to come to this practice, a request form is required to be signed and sent to the previous medical centre, in order to have their records forwarded to us.
Please note that there is an out of pocket fee when transferring medical records. Please refer to our fees and appointment page for more information.
