The Patient Portal

 

At the end of March our patient portal will be provided by DrDoctor. This means that for a short time we're unable to accept new registrations.

You can apply to access your health records and more details are available on this webpage:

Appointments & Health records - CHFT (cht.nhs.uk)

If you are already registered to the current YourEPR patient portal please log in below.


 

 

Some information such as blood test results and letters can take up to 21 days to appear in the patient portal - this is because it has to be checked and submitted by a consultant first.
