From consultation to approved record

Note Dr listens to the consultation as it happens. While you take the history, examine, screen for red flags and explain the manipulation you propose, it writes the record in the background, so your hands stay on the patient and your eyes stay off the keyboard.

Built for scrutiny

Defensible by
default, every encounter

  • Consent for manipulation, recorded

    What you explained, the risks and alternatives discussed and what the patient agreed to, captured the moment you gain consent for spinal manipulation, not reconstructed afterwards.

  • Red-flag screening on record

    The serious features you actively checked for and excluded, documented as you ask, so the note shows the screening that justifies proceeding with care.

  • The reasoning that justifies care

    Your working diagnosis and the clinical reasoning behind the care plan, captured as you think it through aloud, the evidence that answers any later question about your judgement.

As thorough as your examination

A reviewed Note Dr record captures more of what a record needs to stand up to scrutiny, history, examination, diagnosis, reasoning, consent and outcomes, the very elements the GCC and Royal College of Chiropractors standards require of every record.

  • Attention on the patient
  • Time back in your day

Standards and audits referenced: the GCC Code of Professional Practice, the RCC Chiropractic Practice Standard: Clinical Record Keeping (2023) and an audit-and-feedback study (Homb et al, Journal of Chiropractic Education, 2014).

    Ask Note Dr, Delyth Pomeroy
    What did we find for Delyth, and what did she consent to?
    NNote Drfrom this patient's record
    At the assessment on 9 June, you diagnosed mechanical neck pain with cervicogenic headache, with restriction at C2 to C3 and no red flags. You recorded a baseline Neck Disability Index of 34%, and informed consent for cervical manipulation was documented after the risks and alternatives were discussed.

    The standard,
    at the bench

    When a presentation calls for it, Note Dr surfaces the published guidance chiropractors work to, from the GCC Code of Professional Practice and the Royal College of Chiropractors record-keeping standard to NICE low back pain and sciatica advice and red-flag screening, with the source shown. It never tells you how to treat your patient; that judgement stays with you.

    Why chiropractors trust Note Dr with a record that stands up to scrutiny.

    ★★★★★

    Consent is on every manipulation note

    Dr Rhys C, chiropractor

    Recording the consent conversation in full was always the bit that slipped when clinic ran late. Now what I explained, the risks and the alternatives are in every note before I adjust. That was my single biggest exposure.

    ★★★★★

    My red-flag screening is documented

    Dr Imogen F, chiropractor

    I always screened for red flags out loud, but it rarely made the written record. Now the serious things I checked for and ruled out are right there, so the note shows exactly why it was safe to proceed.

    ★★★★★

    My reasoning finally makes the note

    Dr Tobias W, chiropractor

    I reason through the diagnosis during the exam, and half of it used to vanish. Now the working diagnosis and why I ruled out anything sinister is captured. I edit and approve in under a minute.

    ★★★★★

    Hands stay on the patient

    Dr Saoirse H, chiropractor

    I'm not breaking off mid-examination to type any more. I assess, I reason aloud, and the record writes itself in the background. The patient gets a chiropractor, not someone half-watching a screen.

    ★★★★★

    Calmest record review we've had

    Dr Marcus P, clinic director and chiropractor

    Contemporaneous records across the whole team, with consent, red-flag screening and outcome measures on every course of care. Our last record-keeping review against the RCC standard was the smoothest we have run.

    Across a full caseload, new patients, reviews and treatment notes, every record now reads to the same standard, with the consent, red-flag screening and reasoning that used to vanish when I was busy. My notes finally match the care I actually give.

    Chiropractor FAQs

    Can chiropractors use AI to write clinical notes?

    Yes — UK chiropractors can use an AI scribe to draft clinical notes, provided every note is reviewed and approved by the chiropractor before it enters the record. Note Dr listens and drafts the history, examination, red-flag screen, diagnosis and consent discussion, leaving the sign-off with you. It documents your consultation; it never diagnoses or decides care.

    Do I need patient consent to use an AI scribe?

    Yes — tell the patient an AI scribe is helping to document the visit and record their agreement, just as you record consent for examination and treatment. With Note Dr, transcription happens on-device, and the drafted note waits for your review and approval before anything enters the record. If a patient declines, you simply document that visit the way you always have.

    Will an AI scribe meet GCC record-keeping standards?

    An AI scribe does not make a record compliant — the chiropractor who reviews and approves it does. Note Dr structures every draft around the GCC Code and RCC record-keeping requirements: contemporaneous history, examination, red-flag screening, working diagnosis and reasoning, consent for manipulation and outcome measures. You check each note and approve it, so it remains yours.

    Can an AI scribe keep up with short chiropractic treatment visits?

    Yes — short, high-volume treatment visits are where an ambient scribe earns its keep. Note Dr drafts a complete treatment note from a brief visit: the pre-treatment check, ongoing consent confirmed, the segments you adjusted and technique used, the patient's response and plan. You glance over and approve it between patients, instead of batch-writing a day's notes after closing.

    How does Note Dr record consent for spinal manipulation?

    As you explain the manipulation, the benefits, the risks including the rare serious ones and the alternatives, Note Dr captures that consent discussion in the note and records that the patient agreed. It is documented the moment you gain consent, so the record reflects the conversation. You review and approve before saving.

    Will Note Dr work alongside my clinic software, such as PPS or Cliniko?

    Yes. Note Dr sits beside whatever practice software you already run. You paste or export the finished note straight into PPS, Cliniko, WriteUpp or your own records, with no integration project and nothing to rip out and replace. It is a scribe, not a replacement for your system.

    Does Note Dr capture red-flag screening in the record?

    Yes. As you ask about and exclude serious features, such as trauma, malignancy or signs of vertebrobasilar insufficiency, Note Dr records the red-flag screening in the note. The serious features you actively checked for are documented, so the record shows the screening that justifies proceeding with care.

    Complete, audit-ready records for every patient on your list, new assessments, reviews and treatment notes, reviewed and approved by you. Consent, red-flag screening and outcomes, finally handled.
