"The doctor's advisory role involves dialogue…
the aim of which is to ensure that the patient understands."
Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board [2015] UKSC 11
Send in under two minutes. Patients read, ask questions, and confirm understanding in their own time — and you get a clear, lasting record of every consent.
A quick look at Get Patient Consent in action.
Get Patient Consent was designed at the bedside by a practising surgeon who consents patients week-in, week-out. Every part of it reflects how consent really happens in a busy clinic, on a busy list — built around the conversation that matters, the clinical detail you actually need, and the rhythm of a full theatre day. It feels familiar from the first use, and gives you time back from the very first patient.
“I built the tool I wanted in my clinic, on the ward — quick to send, rigorous enough to stand up in court, and respectful of the patient's time and mine.”
— Neville Dastur, surgeon and founder of Get Patient Consent
Consent is meaningful and properly documented — and day to day, it is far less work than you are used to.
Specialty-specific templates come pre-loaded with the right risks, benefits, alternatives and leaflets. No writing or typing a consent form from scratch every time.
Choose a template, add anything patient-specific, send. The patient does the reading on their own time — not yours.
Reminders, status tracking, the signed PDF and the audit trail all happen automatically. One less thing on your follow-up list.
No new hardware. No app to install. Nothing for your secretary to learn on a Friday afternoon.
A signature on a form proves nothing about what the patient understood. A digital consent platform should do better.
Patients can ask questions at any point during the consent process. Clinicians respond. The entire thread becomes part of the documented consent record. Consent as a genuine dialogue.
Every action is logged with cryptographic hash chaining: what was shown, when it was viewed, how long was spent reading, and what was signed. Immutable and independently verifiable.
Track time spent on each section, comprehension checkpoints, and leaflet read-confirmations. Prove the patient was informed, not just that they signed.
Attach versioned PDFs to any consent request. Patients confirm they have read each one. The exact version they saw is locked into the consent record.
Patients receive a secure link by email and complete consent on any device. In clinic, a QR code gets them started instantly. Mobile-first, accessible, no app to download.
On the day, patients scan a QR code to confirm their consent is still valid — or raise new questions. A second layer of evidence for the clinical record.
Sending a consent request is quick.
Choose a consent template, attach leaflets, add patient-specific notes or risks.
The patient receives a secure link by email, or scans a QR code in clinic.
The patient reads each section at their own pace, asks questions, confirms understanding.
Digital signature, PDF generated, full audit trail locked in. Consent documented.
Most consent platforms digitise the paper form: present information, capture a signature. That misses the point. The Supreme Court was clear — informed consent requires dialogue.

The security and compliance are handled for you, so you can trust every consent record completely.
Every patient's details are fully protected, both in storage and whenever they move. Their privacy is safeguarded at every step.
Everything is stored and handled entirely within the UK. Nothing is ever sent overseas.
Every consent is sealed with a digital signature and an independent trusted timestamp. If it is ever questioned, anyone — your defence team, an expert, a court — can independently verify exactly what happened and when, using standard tools. Evidence that stands on its own.
Built from the ground up to meet UK rules for sensitive health information, so staying compliant is one less thing to think about.
Each signed consent captures precisely what the patient was shown, word for word. Later changes never alter a record that's already signed.
Easy to use on any phone, tablet or computer, for patients of all abilities. Nothing to download, nothing to set up.
Consent is critical infrastructure, so it's engineered for high availability — with layered fallbacks thought through, not bolted on. And because every signed consent is a self-contained, independently verifiable PDF that you and your patient already hold, your records stay readable and provable even if a system is ever briefly unavailable.
