Oh my! In Canada its become something of a normal practice to have computers in all doctors officers (from the push ones to the installed in the room ones). It makes it easier to transfer doctor's offices and such. All the information is there if you are in an accident, etc.

Though, like Deja said, we too have to have written permission to see our record? Weird, but it can be done none-the-less. I'm lucky to have gotten doctors that read their appointment notes to me, and save them right then and there at the end of the appointment. I will correct the doctor on errors right then, and also remind them of the suggestions they've made, should they forget.
