We are committed to providing a safe and comfortable environment for all
patients.
All patients are entitled to have a chaperone present during any consultation, examination, or procedure.
Clinicians may advise patients that a chaperone is necessary during any intimate examination; this is to safeguard both the Clinician and you, the patient. We follow the GMC professional standards for consultations.
Our staff have received appropriate training to act as chaperones.
Family and friends are not permitted to act as chaperones as they do not have the knowledge, or the necessary training required.
