Sample No Show Letter To Patients
Missed Appointment Letter Sample 1
Dear {formtext: name=Patient name},
I am writing this letter to let you know that you missed your appointment with Dr. {formtext: name=name of the Doctor; cols=16} at {formtext: name=9:30 AM; cols=7}, {formdate: LL}. You are currently scheduled and enrolled in physiotherapy, and you have missed your third session. It is recommended for you to complete this physiotherapy course and to not skip any further sessions.
For a physiotherapy course, two missed appointments potentially lead to our patients retaking the entire course again.
We understand that events out of control could lead to missed appointments, hence, we would request that you apply to reschedule your appointment in the next 24 hours.
We value your health and we appreciate you placing your trust in us when it comes to physiotherapy. We look forward to seeing you soon.
Sincerely, Stacey, TrueHealth Team
