To protect our patients and staff a chaperone can be arranged. You may request a chaperone if you feel you require one at any time. You may usually be offered a chaperone by a clinician (doctor or nurse) for any intimate or personal examination (male or female) or if the nature of the consultation poses a risk of misunderstanding. If you have not been offered a chaperone and you feel you require one, please help us by asking the Clinician to arrange one for you. If you so choose, you can at any time bring someone along with you for your appointment. Download a copy here: Chaperone Policy
