Cancelling Your Appointment
If you have booked an appointment with a Doctor, Nurse or other member of staff, it is really important to let us know if you need to cancel it.
Methods for cancelling your appointment are:
- Online: Cancel Your Appointment using Patient Access.
- By Telephone: Please call us on the surgery telephone number and tell the receptionist.
- By Fax: Please send us a fax on the surgery fax number.
- In Person: Call into the surgery and let the receptionist know in person.
Why is it important to tell us you want to cancel your appointment ?
Up to 80 patients fail to cancel their appointment each month. This wastes a lot of valuable Doctor and Nursing time and also means everyone waits longer to be seen.
By telling us in good time that you cannot keep an appointment, we can offer your appointment to someone else. This helps us to reduce waiting times and means everyone can be seen sooner.
