Can I see what's on my GP records?
I never have actually seen my records myself
But I'm doing life insurance quote and now I'm worried I've given wrong information or missed something off or something!

" They get requests every day from patients, solicitors, police etc etc. Its pretty standard these days. "

I used to work in a call centre that worked for solicitors and there was endless obstruction from GPs when patients requested noted. We'd be told that the BMJ says the request must be signed and the patient hadn't been in to sign (even though the Information Commissioner said emailed requests should be accepted) and all sorts of other avoidances. The worst were hospitals that had backlogs of several months. That's why I thought the practice might be annoyed with me if I created this work for them.
I'm well prepared for them not to read how I want and I will ask for corrections if I see a big problem.

On my nhs app I see no details of births, childhood vaccinations or gp visits, only medications and test results from the last 5 or so years. I have had 4 operations over the last 25 years but none of these are listed. I wonder if details vary according to who your GP practice is?
