DNAs or Did Not Attend is a waste of clinical time.
These are appointments that have been booked but not cancelled as no longer needed.
These DNAs are across all clinicians and vary from a 10 minute appointment to a 30 minute appointment. Patients are asked to please ensure that an appointment, no longer needed, is cancelled in plenty of time so another patient can make use of this appointment.
