Our emergency departments are extremely busy
Our hospitals are extremely busy at the moment. If you become unwell, it is important that you get care in the right place. If you need urgent medical help, you can call NHS 111 or visit online. Please only visit A&E in serious or life-threatening situations.
Cancel or change an appointment
To make sure we are fully utilising our clinics, please give us as much notice
as possible if you are unable to keep your appointment.
Letting us know 72 hours before your appointment means we can offer
this time to someone else in need.
