We can print a copy of your medical problems. Sometimes this is called a ‘brief summary’, where it also includes your medications, results and recent consultations. You can request this by coming to reception or doing an eConsult. These need to be reviewed by a doctor first, to check there is no third party information or potentially harmful information; your request will be passed to a doctor and will be ready within 2 working days. There is no fee for this service.
Because this contains sensitive medical information, you will need to attend in person to show photo ID including proof of address. If you would like someone else to collect this on your behalf we would need to see a signed consent form from you and then the person collecting would need to show photo ID.
Please note, the problem list will contain problem codes from your entire medical record, some of which you may have forgotten about, and some which may be incorrect, possibly even entered by a previous surgery. We don’t have the capacity to routinely review all problem codes, however, if you were particularly expecting a specific diagnosis to be present or if you think there is an error we will certainly review your records. It would be easiest if you could submit this in an eConsult.
