Health check before your appointment — written instructions after.

How ApolloScribe works for patients: from health check to written instructions
A simple process that means your specialist is ready before you even walk in the door.
Complete your pre-appointment health check from home — not on a clipboard in the waiting room.
Your practice will send you a secure link before your appointment. Open it on your phone, tablet, or computer and answer a few straightforward questions about your health, medications, and allergies.
No app to download. No account to create. Just a simple, secure form you fill in at your own pace.
- Works on any device — phone, tablet, or computer
- Typically takes 5–10 minutes to complete
- Your answers are stored securely and shared only with your treating clinician
- Complete it any time before your appointment — the earlier the better
Your specialist reviews your full history before your appointment — so you never have to repeat yourself.
When you walk in, your doctor has already reviewed your health check. They know your medications, your allergies, and any concerns you flagged. The conversation starts where it matters.
No repeating yourself. No interruptions while your doctor catches up on notes. Just a focused consultation from the moment you sit down.
- Your doctor sees a full AI-generated summary of your health check before your appointment
- Important flags — allergies, medications, risk factors — highlighted clearly
- Your history is available to your treating clinician at every future visit
- Your personal details are never shared with AI services — only anonymised clinical data
Leave every appointment with a written patient letter — what was discussed, next steps, in writing.
After your appointment, your specialist generates a patient letter through ApolloScribe. It captures everything discussed during your visit — diagnoses, instructions, medication changes, and follow-up steps.
It arrives in your inbox so you have a permanent written record. Share it with family, your GP, or anyone who needs to know. No more trying to remember what was said.
- Written summary of your visit — what was discussed and what was decided
- Next steps, medication changes, and any recovery instructions where relevant
- When to seek urgent care and who to contact
- Sent to your email — keep it on your phone for easy reference

Your personal information is never sent to AI — ever.
ApolloScribe is built so that no personally identifiable information — your name, date of birth, or contact details — is ever shared with AI models. Before your clinical responses are analysed, all identifying details are removed. Your personal details are re-attached afterward, entirely within ApolloScribe's secure systems.
Frequently asked questions
Why has my specialist practice sent me a health check to fill in?
Your practice uses ApolloScribe to prepare for your appointment in advance. The health check collects your medical history, current medications, and any allergies so your specialist can review everything before you arrive — rather than gathering this information during the appointment itself. This means your doctor is fully prepared and your consultation can focus entirely on you from the moment you walk in.
Is my health information kept private?
Yes. ApolloScribe is built with privacy by design. Your personal details — name, date of birth, contact details — are never sent to AI models. When your health check responses are analysed, the system first removes all identifying information, processes the anonymised clinical data, then re-attaches your details to produce the final summary. Your information is stored securely and shared only with your treating clinician and their practice.
How long does the health check take to complete?
Most patients complete their ApolloScribe health check in 5–10 minutes. It covers your medical history, current medications, and any known allergies or prior reactions. You can complete it from any device — phone, tablet, or computer. Your practice will send you a secure link by email or SMS. Complete it any time before your appointment — the earlier the better, as it gives your specialist more time to prepare.
What happens if I cannot complete the health check before my appointment?
Contact your practice directly if you are unable to complete the health check before your appointment. They will be able to assist you or make alternative arrangements. Where possible, completing it in advance helps your specialist prepare — but please reach out to the practice rather than simply not completing it, as they may need extra time on the day to collect the same information.
What is the patient letter I receive after my visit?
After your appointment, your specialist generates a patient letter through ApolloScribe. This written summary captures what was discussed during your visit — including any diagnoses, next steps, medication changes, any recovery instructions, and when to seek urgent care. It is sent to your email address so you have a permanent written record. You can share it with your GP, family members, or keep it on your phone for easy reference.
Do I need to create an account or download an app?
No. You do not need to create an account or download anything to complete your ApolloScribe health check. Your practice will send you a secure link by email or SMS. Tap the link, complete the health check in your browser, and you are done. It works on any smartphone, tablet, or computer — no special software required.
