253 appointments were wasted in January due to patients not attending.

In January we had 42 hours and 10 mins of appointments that were wasted because patients did not let us know in good time that they could no longer make their appointments. This was equivalent to 253 appointments that could have been used by other patients who really needed them. Please let us know in advance if you need to cancel an appointment so we have time to reuse it.

Getting your test results

If your test results show that you need further tests or treatment, we will contact you. If you result is normal you will likely not be contacted unless the GP still wishes to investigate your symptoms. However please do not hesitate to contact us if your symptoms continue.
