What should I do if I don't go to Xi'an Fourth Hospital after making an appointment with the ophthalmology department?

Ophthalmology outpatient service is a very busy department. Appointment and registration are limited and need to be planned in advance. However, due to various reasons, we sometimes miss appointments or cannot go to the hospital due to other emergencies. So, how should we deal with the problem of not going to the ophthalmic clinic of Xi'an Fourth Hospital after making an appointment? Here are suggestions from four aspects.

1. Cancel or change the appointment

The first time, we should take the initiative to contact the hospital to cancel or change the appointment. As a large general hospital, Xi'an Siyuan Hospital will provide convenient and quick appointment services for patients. You can contact the hospital's reservation line or online reservation system to inform them of your situation and request cancellation or change. They will deal with it according to the situation. If it is reasonable, you can reschedule your visit.

At the same time, we should also respect the efforts of hospitals and doctors to avoid unnecessary troubles caused by temporary cancellation or change of appointments. If there is no emergency, try to notify the hospital one day or earlier to give them time to deal with it.

2. Adjustment of follow-up visit process

If we really missed the appointment because we could not go to the hospital for treatment, the hospital may record our personal information. If there is a need to see a doctor again, we need to explain the previous situation when making another appointment, so that the hospital can arrange according to the actual situation.

In addition, we need to pay special attention to whether the doctor we need is still on the job. If not, we may need to choose a new doctor. It is necessary to know the doctor's visiting time and shift arrangement in advance, so as to avoid not seeing the doctor you want to see.

3. Avoid malicious appointment

Reservation and registration resources are limited, and everyone needs to rely on this system to obtain medical services. Therefore, we need to comply with the relevant regulations when making an appointment, and do not occupy resources maliciously. If we don't need to see a doctor or have found another hospital, we should cancel the appointment or inform the hospital in time so that they can adjust resources.

At the same time, do not abuse the appointment system, and do not cancel or change appointments frequently, so as to avoid unnecessary troubles to hospitals and other patients. We should cherish public resources and make rational use of them.

4. Avoid frequent absences

If we are absent for many times or cancel our appointment at important medical times, the hospital may blacklist us and restrict our subsequent appointment. Therefore, we should try to avoid frequent absences.

If there is an emergency and you cannot go to the hospital, you should inform the hospital in time and explain the reason. The hospital will deal with it according to the actual situation. If possible, you can apply to the hospital for a new appointment.

In a word, we should cancel or change the appointment in time and respect the efforts of the hospital and the doctors. If there is a need to see a doctor again, we can explain the situation to the hospital and adjust the follow-up treatment process. At the same time, we should avoid malicious appointments and frequent absences, cherish medical resources, and reasonably use the appointment system.
