How to share your medical records with a new doctor

Updated June 2026

In Cellar you create a read-only packet that organizes your history and send a private link. It is time-limited and revocable, the clinician needs no account to open it, and you choose what is included.

When you see a new doctor, you do not have to arrive with a folder of paper or rely on records they cannot pull. In Cellar you create a read-only packet that organizes your history, then send a private link. The link is time-limited and revocable, the clinician needs no account to open it, and you control what is included. It is a copy you choose to share, your own right of access, not a write into the clinic's system.

Not for: A packet is a read-only copy you share, not a write-back into the clinic's record system, and sharing it is your own right of access, not a HIPAA-covered transfer.

What the doctor receives

A packet is a clean, organized summary of the records you choose: labs and their trends, scans, visit notes, and medications, each linked back to the source document so the clinician can verify any value.

They open it from a private link, with no account and no app to install.

You stay in control

You choose what goes in the packet and for how long the link works, and you can revoke it at any time. Nothing is shared until you create the link, and nothing stays shared after you revoke it.

Common questions

Does the doctor need a Cellar account?

No. The clinician opens your packet from a private link without an account or an app.

Can I revoke a packet after sending it?

Yes, anytime. Revoking the link ends access immediately.

What does the doctor see?

An organized summary of the records you chose: labs and trends, scans, visit notes, and medications, each linked back to the source so they can verify it.

Is this a HIPAA transfer?

No. Sharing your own records is your right of access, not a HIPAA-covered exchange between providers. Cellar is not a HIPAA-covered entity.

Bring your records into one place

Cellar reads your labs, scans, and visit notes into one private, source-linked timeline you can search and share with any doctor. Encrypted, and never used to train AI.
