Appointment Instructions

Before Your Appointment


Before your appointment, we will send you a link by email or on your mobile phone. This will allow you to access your details on our patient’s portal. You can update your personal details, medical history, and sign any forms required. That way, it reduces your time at the reception on arrival. When you arrive at the clinic, you can let us know you are here through the portal, or you can phone us from your mobile. If you do not have access to a phone, please knock on the front door. The front door will be locked, and no access will be allowed if you do not have an appointment. If you want to make an appointment, please give us a ring on 0116 2721800.

If you do not have the facilities to access the patient’s portal, we can update your details and medical history over the phone before your appointment, and if you are happy for us to sign your medical history form, we will do it for you.

If you cannot keep your appointment, please give us as much notice as possible so we can give the appointment to someone else. We have a long waiting list after the lockdown.
