I take the privacy rights of my patients very seriously. This privacy policy sets out how I deal with your ‘personal information’. A full version will be sent out via email.
What personal information do I collect?
In order to treat you, I will ask you to provide certain information. This includes:
Name, Gender, Date of birth, Home address, Email address, Telephone number, Medical history
To this, over time, I will add details of the conditions for which you have consulted me and the remedies and other therapies that I have prescribed or recommended.
How do I collect this personal information?
All the information collected is obtained directly from you. This is usually at the point of your initial consultation and in the questionnaire I send out which I ask you to complete prior to the consultation. I will also request that you provide consent for me to store and use your data. Your consent is required in order to ensure my compliance with data protection legislation.
How do use this personal information?
I use your personal information to analyse the conditions for which you have consulted me.
I will communicate with you by email, by Whatsapp/phone and by post.
With whom do I share your personal information?
I do not share your personal information.
How long do I keep your personal information?
I need to keep your information for as long as you continue to consult me.
How your information can be updated or corrected
To ensure that I have accurate and up-to-date information, you need to inform me of any changes you believe I should make to the personal information I hold.
Under data protection legislation, you have the right to inspect the personal information I hold about you.
How do I store your personal information?
My patient files are paper-based, and also in the form of typed up notes, and are held securely within my home.
