Re: "How Do I add clinical data into Apple health".
Assuming you are using iOS 26 on your iPhone 17 Pro:
Apple Support's online article for iOs 26 : Intro to Health data on iPhone - Apple Support
Eg: says:
"Data that you add manually"
- Add your medications, vitamins, and supplements: By adding these items, you can get reminders to take them and learn more about them. See Track your medications in Health.
- Add information to a Medical ID: You can provide information about your medical conditions, medications, emergency contacts, and more in an emergency Medical ID. First responders and others can view this critical information directly on your iPhone, even while it’s locked. See Set up and view your Medical ID.
- Add information to other Health categories: Tap
at the bottom right of Health, tap a category, tap
for the data you want to update, then tap Add Data at the top right."

Above linked article also says: "Health data from other apps and devices
As you set up health and fitness apps that you download from the App Store,
follow their onscreen instructions to allow them to share data with Health.
To store data from devices like blood pressure monitors and weight scales, follow their setup instructions. Bluetooth®devices need to be paired with iPhone.
Note: You can change health data permissions for apps and devices at any time."

Explains:
: ... there is always the option of manually importing your health data using a CSV file (comma-separated values). You can create a CSV file containing all of your health information then select it in the Health app on your new iPhone and hit “Import”. Make sure not to include entries that have already been imported as this could lead to duplicate entries in the Health app!"

Re: " .... feels like your not an British, Canadian or American who cares."
Am in Australia: I care: Mostly, any info. I seek out from Apple's extensive documentation available opens online with "au" for Australia in the web-address (URL), so I know it applies ok, sometimes particularly so.
Don't you get "nz" in the URL on "how-to" web-pages from Apple ?
- Inquiring about availability of, or asking local medical authorities for, digital records can't hurt.
- Scanning paper records in (photographing, or making screen-shots) may be possible ...
- Why not be creative / start your own Health Folder for easy access in the Files or Notes app ?
It may be up to the medical authorities in a country, a region, a city, a practice, who decide whether or not to make digital records available to download. Apple seems to be forward-looking in providing what it does.
