Your medical care
Meetings with your health care team
As you'll only have limited time with your GP/healthcare team you'll want to make every second count.
It really helps to prepare in advance so take notes of the things you want to discuss with your doctor and don’t be afraid to ask questions about things you find unclear. The NHS has some suggestions on their website for what to ask when you're discussing your care with your GP.
GP online services
All Stockport GP practices now offer access to their services online. This allows you to:
- make and cancel GP appointments
- order repeat prescriptions
- view a summary of your medical records
- be more involved in your care
To find out more and to register, visit the NHS online services website. To register for the first time you may need to visit your own GP practice.
If you need help to get online, some GP practices have Practice Champions.
DigiKnow can also help you get online if you want to improve your skills and confidence.
