Virtual appointments
We have also been offering virtual and telephone appointments for many of our outpatient clinics, meaning patients can receive support and care remotely from their own homes.
Please check your appointment letter to see if your appointment is virtual, by telephone, or in person before attending to save an unnecessary journey.
The majority of our virtual appointments are carried out on the phone, with other methods including video calls on mobiles and tablet devices using a programme calledÌýAttend Anywhere, which is very straightforward to use.

General Gastroenterology - new appointments
A pilot has begun within General Gastroenterology to contact new patients who have been experiencing a long wait for their first appointment.
We are contacting these patients using a digital solution - an AI called 'Dora'.
New patients receive a text message advising of a date and time of a call from Dora. Dora will then call on that date at that time, to ask them some questions about their health.
This use of Dora improves efficiency in our service by allowing our administration staff to focus on other key tasks.
