Non attendance and late cancellation information

We are committed to delivering exceptional clinical care to all our clients. To support this commitment, we have a cancellation and non-attendance policy. This policy enables us to manage appointments effectively and ensure timely access to care for everyone.

When you book an appointment, we reserve that time exclusively for you. If you miss the appointment, that time cannot be reallocated to another patient in need. Short-notice cancellations or failures to attend leave us unable to fill the slot, which directly affects our ability to compensate staff for their dedicated time and expertise.
