Missed Appointments in August 2025

Missed Appointments in August 2025:

At St Georges Medical Centre, we are committed to providing high-quality care and ensuring that every patient gets timely access to the services they need. However, missed appointments, also known as DNAs (Did Not Attend), continue to place unnecessary strain on the NHS.

📊 August 2025:

  • ❌ 202 appointments were missed

  • 💷 Cost to the NHS: approximately £6,060

Each missed appointment represents lost time, a potential delay for another patient, and unnecessary financial strain. With each DNA costing the NHS around £30 on average, the impact quickly adds up.

🗓️ How You Can Help

If you’re unable to attend your appointment, please cancel as early as possible. This allows us to reallocate the slot to someone else who needs care.
