This total of missed appointments was equivalent to more than two full-time GPs’ worth of time in a month.
If you cannot attend your appointment, please cancel it so that it can be offered to someone else. Information on how to cancel an appointment is on the Manx Care website, or you can see the best way to contact each practice below.
