Brief Overview

The Due Checkups tab in the Patient Portal tracks the recalls that your practice has organised for you. Recalls are reminders that you must revisit your practice for important reasons such as for post-operative follow-ups, ongoing monitoring of a health condition, an annual check-up, or to discuss the results of recent tests.

Your practice may use recalls to remind you when you should return to your practice. 

The Short Version

• Visit the Due Checkups tab in the Patient Portal to review your current recalls.
• Use the > arrow beside a Checkup to expand the item and view the details.
• Click the Book Now button beside an expanded Checkup to organise an appointment.
• Your oldest Overdue Checkup will be displayed first in the list.
