Text Messages sent by the practice
We send out text messages to patients regularly.
To ensure that this service works we do require patient’s mobile telephone numbers. If, however, you do not wish to receive reminders please let reception know and we can remove your details from the system.
For appointment reminders, the messages are sent the day before your appointment and will be sent during working hours
If we already have your mobile number on record you will need to notify us if you do not wish to receive these reminders.
