Sample Introductory/ Gatekeeper letter
GPs and Consultants may not release a patient’s name and address to a third party (ie a researcher) without the consent of the patient.
A simple way around this difficulty is for the patient’s clinician to introduce the researcher to the patient. This sample letter introduces the researcher and invites the patient to contact the researcher themselves
(submit on the headed notepaper of the patient’s GP or Hospital)

Research into XXX
A colleague of mine, Name, Department etc., is carrying out a research project study into XXX. I am writing to you and to all of my patients with XXX who are in a certain age group, to see if they would be interested in the research.
The research study is to compare a new medication for XXX with a standard one, to see how effective and safe the new drug is. I am enclosing the patient information sheet about the study, which you might like to read.
Taking part in research is voluntary and if you would prefer not to do so nobody will be upset and your treatment will not be affected.
If you would like to hear more about this research study, or if you are interested in taking part, please contact Dr XX by returning the reply slip below in the stamped, addressed envelope provided. The research nurse, XX will then contact you to discuss the study. Returning this slip does not commit you to taking part, only to finding out more about the study.
Thank you for taking the time to read the enclosed information
Yours sincerely
(Patient’s clinician)
