Manor Park Surgery |
 Other Information Chaperones The doctors and nurses at our practice have been advised to offer all patients the courtesy of a chaperone whilst being examined. For any intimate examination, a full explanation of what the examination will involve will be given to you by your doctor or nurse and they will ask permission to carry out this examination. They will also ask you if you would like to have someone else present whilst you have this examination. This person may be a friend / relative or another member of staff from Manor Park Surgery. If you know an intimate examination is required, do bring a chaperone with you; if that is not possible, the practice will provide one. If you have any questions or queries regarding chaperones, please ask your doctor or nurse. Mobile Phones If you have a mobile phone with you when you attend your appointment, please ensure that it is switched off.
