Missed appointments and late cancellations represent a cost to the practice, to you and to other patients who could have been seen in the time set aside for you. Failed appointments can sometimes interfere with your treatment and create unnecessary scheduling problems for other patients. Failure to provide us with 24 hours advance notice or failure to present for a scheduled appointment may result in a cancellation or no show fee. This fee will reflect the cost of your appointment. It is understandable that sometimes cancellations can not be helped due to illness or emergency and we will take all valid circumstances into account. Our goal in communicating our cancellation and failed to attend policy is to avoid any extra charges being passed on to the patient. We thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

We can offer fast access scans for those who don’t want to wait. X-rays start from £49 and MRI scans start from £199. Please speak to a member of our staff for more information.
