AI in GP Practice

We are introducing an artificial intelligence transcription software called Heidi for future consultations. This tool listens to your conversation with the clinician and summarizes your medical history, examination, and treatment plan into clear notes that will be added to your medical record.

 
Heidi does not retain any recordings of your consultation, nor does it store any of your personal information.
 
The adoption of this software allows for precise transcription of clinical notes, which minimizes the risk of omitting vital details and reduces the likelihood of inaccuracies in your records.
 
If you prefer not to use AI transcription during your consultation, please inform the clinician at the beginning of your appointment, and your notes will be recorded manually as they were in the past.
