Medical Reports

pummice · 2019-05-26 17:41:25

A few years ago I received a written medical report from a doctor. I am currently having the same condition investigated by other health professionals. They have requested a copy of the older medical report. Am I at liberty to supply them with this, or do I need to obtain permission from the original doctor?

They are your medical details and files, they belong to you not the doctor. So you can do what you want with them
