What Length Appointment should you book

Your appointment time is held especially for you and Dr Cullen makes every attempt to run on time. Dr Cullen is fully booked each day, so giving her team the maximum amount of notice possible of a cancellation, allows them to offer the appointment to another patient. 

Please be aware that Dr Cullen may ask you to come back for another appointment if she is not able to complete all items in the one consultation. This will prevent her from feeling rushed and allow her to give you the best care possible. It will also help her remain on time and prevent people with appointments after yours from waiting. Please be aware that emergencies do happen and thank you for your patience when that occurs. 

Dr Cullen keeps her own list of items to be discussed at each consult (eg follow up of items from previous consultations). This may result in consultations going longer than expected or her requesting that you come back for a follow up appointment.
