Is it possible to get a printed copy of my GP records? Do I just do a SAR to the GP surgery?

    Hi Mark 

    I know you can get a copy just not sure how 

    Maybe have a look on NHS website or ring your gp

    You can access your record online from some surgerys now. Mine has offered it for around 5 years but it's only been working for the last couple, presumably pushed through since Covid!  You will have to set up an account and prove your identity the first time.

    My online access has been a battle since I moved area and therefore surgery, even before than we were limited to what we could see. I’m going to contact them and discuss options.
