Abstract
In this issue of APT Mitchell & Selmes present an article detailing why patients miss appointments and how clinicians should respond. Many of the papers quoted relate to the psychiatric out-patient clinic. In this commentary as well as picking up on some of the themes that emerge from their article, I explore the attachment that psychiatrists seem to have to this particular model of patient contact.
