They should but if your GP is anything like mine then the notes may not be that detailed.

Hi Sophie
Just to say that I recently requested copy of my records. Like previously I wrote a letter. I think perhaps now that we don't have to pay as it's done via FOI (Freedom of Information), the secretary had to send me a form to complete, which I then had to return.

So, in case you and others' are against the clock, might be worth allowing extra time for form to be sent and returned!

Keep safe and well all.
Kind regards
P:woohoo:
