This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

According to NICE Clinical Guideline CG76 a healthcare professional must “discuss the benefits, side effects and long˗term effects with the patient to allow them to make an informed choice”.

You can start a new petition if there is a specific change you would like to call for.

If you have concerns about the advice you, or someone you know, has received from a healthcare professional please see this web page: www.england.nhs.uk/contact-us/feedback-and-complaints/complaint/.
