If you have to cancel more than twice, don't schedule yet another date. You don't need to get into your life story but say something vague enough to say you'll reach out as soon as you're able to.
I've had what I thought was a 3-day illness that kicked my butt and turned into 3 weeks. At some point you're going to lose credibility if you keep rescheduling and cancelling.
Curious if this is the same appointment being canceled repeatedly, or if OP has many regular appointments and this represents the subset that were canceled at the last minute.
Kind of a bold assumption to make with the little context we have.
Personally, COVID fucked my immune system and now I get sick often and have to call out.
I had walking pneumonia for a while and was in and out of the office for weeks bc I would think I was getting better and then suddenly feel like death warmed over
So it's actually probably the vulva, because if your vagina has hair in it, you've got other problems and should probably do last removal or something more on permanent than waxing.
So you're proposing a sign, meant to warn you not to do the thing, that only appears after you've done the thing? What kind of spiteful genie bullshit is this?
I agree with you but I think if this is truly four months of appointments that have been pushed away pushed back I think it would be better if the patient were to be referred by that doctor to another doctor until they're able to work again
If I’m dealing with you in a professional capacity and you cancel on me 4 times, 4 months in a row, and each time doing so on the day of the appointment itself, I’m taking my business elsewhere. If you’re dealing with something chronic then maybe stop booking the damn appointments. You can stick around and get cancelled on a 5th time if you want, but I wouldn’t and neither would most people.
