Our Pledge
Very occasionally it may be necessary to share information with other health professionals, for example, your General Practitioner. This will only be done when it is in your interest and in order to provide you with the appropriate level of care. However, you are entitled to request that the information you give and details of your treatments are not to be disclosed to another healthcare professional without your prior consent.
If it is necessary to disclose information because you are being referred to another healthcare professional, this will only occur with your prior consent.
Clinical Audit
However, you have a right to object to your records being used in a clinical audit. If you wish to object please inform the podiatrist so that measures can be put in place to stop your records being used for audit purposes.
