How do I get my medical records? Put your request in writing and send it to the physician's address listed on the physician's Profile on the TMB website. You can also contact the TMB to determine if a custodian of records has been reported.
Under Texas law, your health care provider owns the actual medical record. For example, if your provider maintains paper medical records, they own and have the right to keep the original record. You only have the right to see and get a copy of it.
