Late Policy

To provide the best possible service to all our Patients, we ask you to contact us if you are running late so we can make all necessary arrangements to ensure you can be seen by our Clinicians. As our clinics are very busy, you may be asked to reschedule your appointment or wait for an available slot so that all our patients receive the best possible service.
