Privacy

When you become a patient at Central Melbourne Endocrinology, a record is made containing information such as your name, address, date of birth, emergency contacts, general practitioner (GP) contact details, the nature of the problem for which you sought treatment and the investigations, treatment and advice you were given. Every time you attend Central Melbourne Endocrinology for healthcare services or consultations, new information is added to your medical record.
 

Central Melbourne Endocrinology collects the information that is needed to ensure that you receive the best possible care. Your previous medical history helps us identify which treatments are likely to be safe and effective for you and reduces the likelihood of repeating tests that you have had in the past. To help look after your own health we ask that you provide us with accurate and complete information.

Information about you is stored securely in a password-protected electronic medical record and is available to healthcare professionals at Central Melbourne Endocrinology who are involved in your care.

If you want more information or if you do not understand an aspect of your care, the best person to speak to is your treating doctor at Central Melbourne Endocrinology.
