*Late Arrival and Rescheduling Policy

  • At our healthcare facility, we strive to provide timely and efficient services to all our patients. In order to achieve this, we require that all patients call the reception desk and inform the staff if they are running late for their appointment. Failure to do so may result in the Doctor being unable to accommodate the patient.
  • If a patient is running late by more than ten minutes, they will be rescheduled to another time or rebooked on another day, depending on availability. This policy is in place to ensure that our healthcare providers can adhere to their schedules, and that other patients are not inconvenienced by delays.
  • We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, and we encourage patients to inform us as soon as possible if they are going to be late. In cases where a patient is late due to circumstances beyond their control, we will do our best to accommodate them and reschedule their appointment at the earliest available time.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain efficient and effective healthcare services for all our patients.
