Healthcare data, medical and dental records

You should consult your family doctor (GP) to get a copy of your medical record from the given doctor. The same applies for specialists, in case you have been treated by for instance a dermatologist or a psychiatrist. Your records will be in Danish, subsequent translation will be your own responsibility.

Ask the individual practitioners whether transcripts of associated laboratory results or copies of earlier medicine prescriptions might be relevant in association to the record. 

If you have children, and you want to collect their medical records, the same procedure applies for them.

You can access your records from public hospitals on sundhed.dk. The website and your records are in Danish. You need MitID to login to access the records.

Your family doctor (GP) will also be able to access your hospital records through sundhed.dk.
