💡 Use this simple phrase when you first contact the receptionist to start the booking process.

Do you have any availability on Thursday afternoon, or is the office completely busy then?

Could you tell me if you have any free times during the coming week?

That time works well for me, so please write me down for that slot.

💡 This is a natural way to agree to a time that the helper suggests.

I have to change my appointment because a new problem has just come up.

Could we move the meeting to Friday morning, or is that day fully booked?

I am very sorry, but I have decided to cancel my appointment for tomorrow.

💡 Use this phrase to cancel a booking when you cannot visit the office.

Could you send a quick email that confirms the details of my booking?

💡 Ask for this document so you do not forget the correct date and time.

I might arrive fifteen minutes late because the local train has stopped running now.

I would like to check that we still have our appointment for tomorrow afternoon.
