"Although you have asked us not to contact your GP..."

"...we are required by the Medical Care Standards to issue a Discharge Summary for all patients. Therefore please find your details outlined below"

This is the letter I got from Karidis and co.

And it shows the admission date, the type of surgery, and the amount of gland and fat removed.

So, what is this about the GP?

Did they also send a copy to the GP? If so, I'll be fucking pissed.

I think it just means, you get a copy of the letter for your own records to keep by law.

Incase you need evidence that you had surgery for whatever reasons ... work/missing exams or whatever.

Oh right. Well, that would make sense. Thanks.

Interesting........ I would contact his office and ask exactly what that means......... it could be a legal requirement? who knows....

I know Mr Levick has sent letters to my GP as I have reviewed my records under the access to health records act - and I noticed he had written...... however this isn't an issue for me personally.
