What a Report Covers
A medical report is written from your medical record and, where needed, an examination. Depending on its purpose, it may cover your diagnosis, relevant history, test results, treatment, and how your condition affects your work or daily activities. Your doctor can only include what is clinically supported, so a report may not say everything you would like it to.
Before Your Appointment
When you book, let reception know that your appointment is for a report and what it is for, so enough time can be set aside with your doctor. Bring any forms you have been asked to have completed. It also helps to bring copies of any relevant letters, test results or scans from other providers.
Your Privacy
Your medical record is a confidential document, and only authorised staff can access it. Relevant information may be shared with doctors and specialists involved in your care, and disclosed where required by law, such as for court orders or subpoenas. If you have any concerns about how your health information is shared, please discuss them with our team before your report is prepared.
