I consent to my physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, counsellor, or social worker reviewing my personal health information in order to provide it to me as requested on this form. I understand that there may be a fee to transfer my records, including any fee associated with delivery by regular mail or courier.

Requirements for distribution of records
