They will communicate by email though you have to send them a signed letter authorising this.
I have recounted this saga to friends who are medics in the NHS and they are absolutely appalled at the glacial speed they work at and their poor communication with patients.
The whole thing seems to have been put in the 'too difficult' box. In six months all I have managed to do is go down to Gatwick to pee into a cup and take some bizarrely unscientific hearing test where one of the AME's whisper random words to you and you repeat them back!
I dont really want to comment on this any further as I have only seen progress by writing a letter of complaint to the chief medical officer and am considering taking it futher if its not resolved by the end of the year.
Perhaps I have just been unlucky with the AME who was initially assigned to me?
