Video-Taping of Consultations
All video recordings are made under the rules laid down by the National Training committee. The video tape is as confidential as your medical records and will be kept with the same security used for educational purposes and then erased. If you do not want the video-camera to record your consultation, then all you have to do is tell the receptionist. This will not affect your consultation or treatment in any way.
Locum Doctors
Locum Doctors are appointed if a Doctor is on holiday or ill. When making an appointment we always advise if a locum has been appointed to cover planned Doctors leave. In the event of illness you will be advised that a locum is running a certain surgery session.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused and if patients prefer to wait and see the doctor of their choice rather than the locum we are happy to oblige by making an appointment with the doctor on their return.
