Unfortunately for several reasons, each month there are numerous patients who do not attend their scheduled GP or Nurse appointment. This wastes a large amount of GP & Nurse time, but also prevents other patients from booking those appointments.
The practice will display how many appointments have been missed on a monthly basis in reception at each site.
We ask all patients to:
- Inform us if you cannot make the appointment. Within 1 hour prior to your appointment.
- Contact the surgery if you are late rather than not attending, as the appointment can be cancelled or other arrangements may be able to be made.
