• We respectfully ask for 2 full working days’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment.

  • Any appointment cancelled with less than 2 full working days’ notice, will incur a late cancellation charge of 50% of the full appointment fee or £300 per hour, whichever is less.

  • Any missed appointment will incur a failure to attend charge of up to 100% of the full appointment fee.

  • We reserve the right to refuse to book further treatment for patients who fail to attend two consecutive appointments or have two late cancellations, until any outstanding balance has been paid.

  • We understand cancellations are sometimes unavoidable due to illness or emergencies and we will of course take all individual circumstances into account.

  • Any appeals about missed or cancelled appointment decisions by a patient should be made to the Practice Manager.

Cancellations at short notice and non-attendance without a valid reason denies other patients of essential dental care and treatment.

To decrease waiting times for appointments, we have a cancellation and failure to attend policy.
