Patient Access (UK)
I downloaded the Patient Access app back in January but wasn’t impressed.
“Patient Access is a website and mobile app which gives you access to a range of GP services online, as well as access to your health records.
Using Patient Access will allow you to:
- Book your GP appointments from the website or app
- Order your repeat prescriptions directly from the website or app
- Access your medical records”
At the time the data and services was minimal and hard to access, ironically.
However, I noticed a few weeks ago that it had been updated and finally got around to having a look tonight. Much, much better! I can easily book GP appointments, look at my meds and put in repeat requests, look at past appointment info, look at some of my medical reports (at least I assume that’s the case - there were 15 requests to share my medical record from the hospital on 30 sept. I’m assuming that’s the date the app was updated and it was playing catch up ;)).
It also has health articles, info on what to do if ....., a symptoms checker and info on accessing self referral services, amongst other things.
It’s still a relatively new service and the NHS does not race to the finish line but it’s definitely improved and I can see me using it.

My GP use this one so we can book online too. It's so much easier than fighting to get an appointment on the phone...
-
I use an online service too but it's called systmonline (not a typo). Sounds very similar to this except my GPs have restricted access to some areas.

Who named that? Weirdo - feels like it should be symptomonline or systemonline...

See Northerners and stupid spelling apps...
