Patient Chaperone

Chaperone Policy

It is the policy of Duddon Valley Medical Practice to respect the privacy, dignity, religious and cultural beliefs of our patients. If you feel you would like a chaperone to be present during a physical examination by a doctor or any other health professional, or if you would prefer to be examined by a doctor or health professional of the same sex as yourself, please let us know and we will do our best to comply with your wishes.
