Day of assessment

On the day of your assessment please ensure you are in a private space. Our clinicians will not proceed with the assessment if they are not satisfied with the surroundings.

'I don't consent to my medical records being obtained by MyPace'

Unfortunately, in this instance, we will not be able to proceed with a formal treatment plan for you, and in some cases a diagnostic decision may not be possible.

'How long will it take for my medical records to reach MyPace?'

We would love to provide an accurate timespan for this. However, due to the high demand on NHS services we understand that it may take longer than expected. That said, we do encourage our patients to provide their GP with a gentle nudge to ensure that the timelines are not too long and cumbersome and have found that this often works.

Complex cases

During the assessment process your clinician may identify the need for further investigations prior to a diagnostic decision or the commencement of a treatment plan.

Consent to obtain your medical records

Your clinician may instruct our Support Team to obtain a consent form from you to contact your GP to obtain your medical records. This may typically occur if your clinician has identified any contraindications that may affect a proposed treatment plan, for example.

Reviewing your records

Once we've received your medical records your clinician will review them and instruct a member of our Support Team to liaise with you as to your next steps.

'Can I discuss treatment options in my assessment?'

Yes

If your clinician finds that no further investigation is required they will lead the discussion on the treatment options available to you.

You will be advised whether you may proceed to book your private prescription with us.
