patient details are kept under data protection laws and under strict confidentiality, I would be suspicius of any patient who asked me to not keep their medication details on record,

end of the day, its only for the benefit of the patient, e.g. helps spot GP mistakes and stock keeping of uncommon items.

bout GP surgerys, well i bet they boot ur ass off their books if you asked em that, because their whole prescrition procedure is based on printing from computers, and if the patient isnt on their then the GP would have to unneccessarily hand write the prescription (in which case the pharmacist wudnt be able to enter the records in the pharmacy computer anyway coz s/he cant read wat the doctor wrote. lol :P) increasing their workload, and GPs dont like (extra) work.
