Confidentiality

You can trust that anything you discuss with our surgery staff - whether a doctor, nurse or receptionist - will remain confidential. Even if you are under 16, we won't share anything with anyone, including your parents, teachers, other family members or care workers, without your permission. The only time we might share confidential information without your permission us to protect either you or someone else from serious harm or safeguarding issues. In such cases, we would always try to talk with you first.

If you have any worries or queries about confidentiality, please ask a staff member. 

If you want to discuss something confidential with our receptionists, we have a side room available next to reception for this purpose.
