Patient Portal
Please be aware some information may be available via the Patient Portal. The portal is available to the majority of outpatient specialties and provides patients with the opportunity to manage their own appointments and view appointment letters online.
Your GP Record
The Trust will not have information held in your GP records other than copies of key information shared by your GP. Therefore, if you require access to information held in your GP records you must submit a request to the GP Practice that you are registered with.
When you change GP’s, your GP will transfer all of your GP record to your new GP. This ensures all of your previous medical history is now known to your new GP.
Your Summary Care Record
Any queries concerning your NHS Summary Care Record (SCR) must also be redirected to your GP to answer. They are responsible for the information uploaded to your NHS Summary Care Record.
For more information about the NHS SCR visit NHS electronic care records page.
