These figures show recorded appointments and the gap between booking and attending. They do not show how hard it was to get through to the practice, and the gap includes appointments patients chose to book weeks ahead. Practices classify appointments themselves, so the urgent and routine counts are not perfectly consistent between practices. Read the full caveats. Spotted a problem? Tell us.
