@C7RKY FANTASTIC! THANK YOU!! I only have one short recording but MANY letters,photos,etc - we've never known such injustice,agonies,insults -
@chillisalsa Welcome! I have contemporaneous notes from all consultations, but more luck than judgement & not same as a recording. They lie.
-
@C7RKY Yes, I've found that out - & it has cost us everything & we have never had such abuse spoken/written about us before in our lives!

@C7RKY but you need to advise them that you are doing it? -
@Cleverestcookie Not according to the MDU article Cathy. But doctors do have to get consent from patients to record in most circumstances. -
@C7RKY I think I would as a courtesy. Reasonable way to capture all the information which you may not remember, although I think I'd be ok! -
@Cleverestcookie Being the MDU, they obv focus on law, rather than courtesy. Legally, a pt can covertly record. But manners always count. :)
