Text Message Reminders

You may receive a text message from us in the next few days to ask whether you consent to receiving appointment reminders via text message going forward.

From next week the surgery will be sending blood test appointment reminders to patients via text message. These will be sent 2 days before your appointment.  We will let you know that it’s the surgery in the text message and give you the option to cancel the appointment by return text. 

We hope that this will assist in reducing the number of consistently high number of ‘no show’ appointments we experience.

If you have changed your mobile number since you registered with us and haven’t let us know yet, please contact us at your convenience with your new number so we keep your records up-to-date.

Many thanks.
