93 Patients did not attend in April 2009Jun 3, 12:38 PM

Whilst this is a slight improvement on the figures for March, it still equates to a lot of wasted doctor and nurse time. If we assume at each appointment is for ten minutes (many appointments with the nurses are actually for much longer periods) this equates to fifteen and a half hours of doctor/nurse time wasted. This is the equivalent of having an extra doctor or nurse in surgery every afternoon for a whole week.

Whilst we appreciated that for many reaons you might not be able to attend your appointment, we are often able to fill appointments at very short notice. If you cannot attend, please let us know.
