Vista Road Surgery contributes to the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD).

Information in patients records is important for medical research to develop new treatments and test the safety of medicines. Vista Road supports medical research by sending some of the information from patient records to the Clinical Practice Research Datalink.

CPRD is a Government organisation that provided anonymised patient data for research to improve patient and public health.

You cannot be identified from the information sent to the CPRD.

If you do not want anonymised information from your patient record to be used in research, you can opt out by speaking to your doctor. You can do this by completing the Ask the Doctor a question form.
