First week Great service. Concentrating on callbacks first thing is working well. Response times good, and patients responding already by spreading the demand. Monday high, as expected, and next Monday will be as well. About 6.8% pw demand is moderate. 95% of patients choosing same day to be seen face to face. Could you have believed that? Patients are loving the change. Outstanding.
