Me again!! Quick question for those who have completed their adoptions.
Now we have ds adoption/birth certificate I took it to the doctor surgery to have his personal details amended. The lovely (being sarcastic) receptionist informed me his original name would be kept on his records so that pre adoption medical information would be available. She then processed to loudly check his birth name in front of a queue of people which I was none to pleased at.
My question is should his medical information from birth not be available through his nhs number? I am in no means trying to re write history and fully accept he had a life and other name before coming to us however I don't think now he is legally adopted that his previous name should pop up in the screen at the doctors. Anyone else dealt with this?
