It is important for your treatment that you attend your scheduled appointment. If you need to cancel or change your appointment please let us know as soon as possible so that we can offer the appointment to another patient. Any missed appointments waste NHS resources and money which could be spent on other areas of patient care.
If you would like to cancel or rebook your Outpatient appointment, please use the form below.
Please note:
- Waiting times and the 18 weeks* referral to treatment (RTT) pledge: The NHS Constitution gives you the right to access consultant led services within maximum waiting times. You have the right to start your NHS consultant-led treatment within a maximum of 18 weeks from referral, unless you choose to wait longer or it is clinically appropriate that you wait longer.
