Patients who fail to attend GP consultations cost the NHS enormously with hundreds of slots wasted annually.
DNAs have an enormous impact on the Healthcare System in terms of cost and waiting time, significantly adding to delays along the patient pathway.
This is an enormous waste of clinical and administrative time.
Please help us to help you by always cancelling an appointment you are unable to attend or no longer need. We are then able to offer the slot to others.
You can also cancel your consultation by registering with our On-Line Access Service, replying to the Text Reminder service or by phoning the surgery.
