CHOOSE AND BOOK----PROVIDING A GREATER SERVICE FOR OUR PATIENTS

The Danbury Medical Centre and the Wyncroft Surgeries are able to offer referral appointments to their patients through the Choose and Book system. This is a national electronic service that gives patients a choice of place, date and time for their first outpatient appointment in a hospital or clinic.

There are many benefits to the Choose and Book system .

Patients may be offered:                                                                                                    

a) A choice of at least four hospitals for many of the medical conditions needing treatment
   
b)  A choice of date an time of appointment.

Initially there were some issues with the installation of the required hardware and software at the Danbury Medical Centre, the most notably being the upgrade of the main server and all the computers terminals necessary to allow connection to the central database.

The Danbury Medical Centre is now able to offer Choose and Book to as many patients as possible.

Direct referrals to the local hospitals are still provided. With this process you will be contacted by the hospital and given an appointment once the consultant has seen the referral letter.
