Collect patient records and medical files without the hassle
Generate an upload request link and share it with patients, clinics, labs, or referring providers. Medical forms, imaging files, test results, and consent documents arrive directly in your WeTransfer workspace, and you get an email notification each time a file lands. No shared folder access to negotiate, no attachments bouncing through email chains, no follow-up calls chasing missing documents.
Request once, receive from anyone
Healthcare workflows depend on gathering the right files from the right people quickly, whether that means intake forms from a new patient, lab results from an external provider, scanned referral letters, or imaging files from a radiology department. WeTransfer upload requests give you a dedicated link you can share by text, patient portal message, or email, so every file routes straight to your workspace the moment it is submitted. Files arrive exactly as the sender uploaded them, with no compression or quality loss, which matters when you are receiving high-resolution diagnostic images, multi-page PDFs, or detailed clinical documents that need to remain intact. You can preview supported file formats directly in your browser before downloading, making it easy to confirm the right documents have arrived without opening each one locally. Both you and anyone uploading to your request need a free WeTransfer account, and a new request takes only moments to create and share.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Sign in to your WeTransfer account, click Request Files on the homepage, give the request a title, and optionally add instructions specifying what the sender should upload, such as file format, naming conventions, or the type of document needed. WeTransfer generates a unique link you can share with patients, labs, or partner clinics via email, text, or your patient portal. When someone uploads through that link, you receive an email notification and the files appear in your Received tab.
No paid plan is required on either side. Anyone uploading to your request needs a free WeTransfer account, and creating the request itself also requires a free account. There are no subscription fees for the person sending files, which keeps the process accessible for patients, external clinics, or freelance practitioners who may not use file-sharing tools regularly.
WeTransfer accepts any file type, so you can collect diagnostic imaging files, scanned referral letters, completed intake forms in PDF or Word format, spreadsheets, audio recordings, video files, ZIP archives, and more. Files arrive in their original quality with no compression or re-encoding, which is important when the fidelity of a document or image is clinically relevant.
Yes. When creating a request, you can add a written message to guide the sender, covering details such as required file formats, document naming, or which specific records to include. Clear instructions reduce back-and-forth and help ensure you receive complete, correctly formatted files the first time, which is especially useful when collecting from patients who may be unfamiliar with file-sharing tools.
Every time someone uploads through your request link, WeTransfer sends you an email notification, and the files appear in the Requested section of your Transfers panel. You can close a request at any time to stop accepting new uploads, and you can delete it entirely when you no longer need it. File requests do not expire on their own unless you choose to close or remove them, so you can keep a request active for an ongoing intake process or shut it down once a specific collection period ends.
