Following your previous appointment with Community Outpatients Dermatology Service as requested by our Dermatology specialist you have been booked for a Follow Up appointment.
It is very important that you attend the appointment.
Please aim to arrive 10 minutes before the start of the appointment.
If you are late less than 10 min late, you will still be seen, but you may need to wait until there is a space in the clinic. If you are more than 10 minutes late, you may be asked to book another appointment.
If you are prescribed any medicines, please bring all your medicines along to the appointment – the doctor or nurse may need to see these. You are welcome to bring a family member or friend along to the appointment as well.
If you require a chaperone, please let our bookings team know in advance, as it may not be possible to organise a chaperone on the day. If you require an interpreter, it is very important that you let us know before the appointment – we will not be able to organise one on the day.
Although we do our best to run the clinics on time, unforeseen circumstances do mean that we may run late. If this happens, please bear with us, and we will do our best to keep you informed.
Please contact Community Outpatients Dermatology Service as soon as you can to explore if your appointment needs to be rearranged. It is important you let the service know to prevent your appointment being wasted leading to delays to other patients.
