Taking, uploading and organising patient photos

The Photos panel on the right of the patient record is built for in-room use on a phone or tablet.

Adding a photo

1. Press Take photo to use the device camera, or Upload to pick an existing image.
2. Choose the Kind: Before, After or Other. This drives the before/after comparison view.
3. Set the Date taken (today is pre-filled).
4. Optionally link the photo to a treatment record, so it sits alongside the clinical detail of that visit.
5. Press Save photo.

Photos are automatically compressed on your device before upload, so large phone photos upload quickly, and the file's location data is stripped for privacy.

Editing a photo

Press Edit under any photo to change its kind, date taken, linked record, or its per-photo Marketing consent tick. Press Delete to remove a photo permanently; you are asked to confirm because this cannot be undone.

Withdrawing marketing consent

Consent flags for the patient live in the Consent card on the record: photos for clinical records, photos for marketing, marketing emails and marketing SMS. If a patient changes their mind about marketing use, press Withdraw photo marketing consent in that card. This turns off their marketing consent and clears the marketing flag from every photo on file in one step, so nothing slips through.
