Text Message Reminders

If you have provided us with a mobile telephone number we will apply it to your medical records and you will receive appointment reminders and healthcare information unless you opt out.

You can opt out by completing the form and indicating in the marked section or by telephoning the practice.

 

New Data Protection Regulations from May 2018 (GDPR)

Under the new data protection regulations introduced from 25th May 2018, we will continue to contact patients via text messages regarding the delivery of care if they have not opted out.

If practices are sending messages about recommended treatment for the management of a specific health issue, then this is defined as providing appropriate care for patients, not marketing purposes.

If you would like to opt out of any future contact via text messaging, then please complete the form and indicate in the marked section.
