A cancellation fee will apply for non attendance at appointments without sufficient prior notice (2 hours).
Chandlers Hill Surgery is committed to providing you and your family with personalised, professional, quality healthcare across a wide range of medical and support services.
Reminder System
Appointments reminder system – an SMS reminder of your appointment can be sent the day prior. Please ask reception if you would like this service.
We also have recall and reminder systems in place for other services such as care plans, diabetes and lung function tests. If you would like to receive this electronically please complete a consent form.
Schedule
Patients are not always seen in the order of their arrival at the surgery, but in order of their booking time. You may wish to ring the surgery before your appointment to check whether your doctor is running on time.
Emergencies are dealt with as they arrive and this may also affect your waiting time.
