When in need of dermatological services, Abilene Dermatology Skin Surgery Center offers medical, surgical, and cosmetic services to meet your needs. At the end of your appointment, your physician will create a record of what happened during the visit, which will be added to your larger healthcare history.
How can you access this information after your appointment? With DrOwl, it couldn’t be easier. Our telemedicine app can store healthcare records from a number of providers and practitioners. Even better, your complete medical record will be accessible from a smartphone or other mobile device, which ensures seamless access.
You may need your medical records to visit a new provider, or you might have a health question and want to access your personal data for greater insight. In this case, you must contact Abilene Dermatology Skin Surgery Center to request your medical information from the clinic.
The next step involves the completion of a form, which is sometimes provided digitally. Otherwise, patients must write a letter informing the clinic of their request. This letter must include your personal information (such as name, address, and phone number), as well as information on the medical records you’re seeking.
You may also need to provide a copy of your ID to verify your identity. Some clinics also charge a small fee, but copies of medical records are usually free for patients. Once the clinic has received your request, they typically have from one to two months to fulfill.
Patients with easy access to their medical records often experience improved health and wellness because they can be proactive about treatments. With DrOwl, new medical records will be digitally stored and easily accessible by you and any other authorized users, such as caregivers you add to your account.
Our app includes a helpful search feature to allow users to find specific information quickly. You can also take advantage of our patient snapshot, which provides a summary of your complete record. And in the event you have questions for your dermatologist, DrOwl even provides a convenient in-app messaging feature. Contact us today for more information or download the app to get started.
