How can I get a copy of my surgery report? Should I get it? It is important for me to have a copy?

If you would like a copy of your surgery report it would make sense to begin by phoning the Medical Records Department of the hospital at which you had your surgery, and ask them to explain to you how to go about getting copies of your hospital records, including your pre-op tests, pathology and operative reports. Bear in mind that hospital policies vary, and some hospitals may charge a “per page” copying fee. If you appear in person to get your report, you will need to present a photo ID in order to get a copy of your records. It would be best to call ahead of time to find out what you need to do and where you need to go, in order to avoid unnecessary frustrations. It may also be an option for you to obtain the records you want from your doctor’s office.

Not all women are interested in obtaining all the paperwork relating to their surgery, because they figure they would need a medical dictionary to look up nearly every word on it, or they don’t care to read the graphic details. However, if you are among those interested in having these records, keep in mind that you have the right to get them.
