How We’re Improving Your Appointment Experience using TORTUS

We are excited to introduce you to Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, our AI-powered scribe, making your GP visits more efficient and personalised. 

It is here to ensure your doctor can spend more time focusing on you rather than on administrative tasks. The technology is unobtrusive; the only difference you’ll notice is a small, discreet microphone. 

What Does Surgery Intellect, Powered by TORTUS, do?

Clinical assistance: Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, assists our clinicians by taking notes and summarising your discussions. This ensures your medical records are precise and easier to understand. The notes are always reviewed by your clinician to make sure they are accurate and reflect the issues discussed. Don’t worry — only information that’s important for your health is captured.

Privacy and security:Your privacy is paramount. Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, complies with all UK data protection regulations, including GDPR. Rest assured, your personal information is secure and confidential.

No long-term storage: Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, only transcribes the health and care information from your consultation and doesn’t store any personal information.

How Does Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, Benefit You?

The introduction of this technology brings several benefits to your healthcare journey:

  • More engaged consultations: By removing the need to constantly type or write notes, our Healthcare Professionals can focus entirely on listening to you. This allows for a more natural, attentive conversation, stronger patient-clinician relationships, and the assurance that you are being fully heard.
  • Better continuity and record accuracy: Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS, captures the details of your consultation accurately and consistently. This ensures your medical record is complete and up to date, improving the continuity of your care and reducing the need to repeat information.
  • Confidence that your consultation is documented securely: your personal data will never be used for AI training. Your privacy is paramount.

Should you have any questions about this new feature, please do not hesitate to ask a member of our team.

If you do not wish for Surgery Intellect, powered by TORTUS to be used during your appointment, just let the GP you are seeing know. Your comfort is our priority.
