If you manage your upcoming appointments using the HotDoc Appointment Calendar, you may wish to see if a patient has confirmed their appointment using a Reminder.

The Appointment Calendar allows you to see at a glance, any patient who is yet to confirm their upcoming appointment.

This allows you to contact any patients who are yet to confirm, reschedule and fill last minutes spaces with your cancellation list.

• When a Reminder has been confirmed, you will see a green reminder icon and when hovering over the booking, you will see Reminder Confirmed:
