Making an appointment

Appointments for this service can be made through your GP.  Outpatient clinics are held at Homerton Monday - Friday.

Please help us to help you.

If you do have an appointment time and date and cannot make the appointment for some reason, call us and we will give you a new time and date.

By giving us notice, you allow us to offer your original slot to another patient.

We need you to give us 48 hours notice of cancelling a clinic appointment and 72 hours notice for cancelling surgery – this gives us enough time to arrange for another patient to be seen or treated.
