Hello Jennifer
Many thanks for letting me know you are not now connected to Chadsfield Medical Practice and thank you for forwarding my original Freedom of Information request to the practice. I am sorry you have been inconvenienced.
I will ask an administrator to forward the email I sent earlier today and also to delete your contact email address.

Hi Jennifer
I've just taken note that you not only forwarded my original email to the practice but also the one I sent earlier today. Thank you.
Best regards
Peter
Hi Peter
Please note that in my original email I stated that 'if' I had received the original request I would have forwarded it to the Practice. To be truthful I cannot actually remember it, but I have forwarded a number of things to them so it could have been one of them. I just want you to be aware of that.
Regards
Jennifer

Between 0.3% and 55% of patients have opted for online services in different practices.
