Appointment times in Dr ABC's diary do not match the times shown in patient 123456 confirmation email.

The appointment is booked  for the 2/2/25 at 9:00am till 10.00am but the patients confirmation email states 9:00am till 9.45am. 

The appointment type is called 'General Check Up' and it is only affecting this patient and clinician.

 

I have checked the services and billing rules and booked an appointment with the same clinician using one of our 'test' patients (22222) and the same issue did not occur. 

 

Can you help me identify the issue?
