Due to an unusually large number of patients who do not show for their appointments and who do not call in advance to cancel those appointments, we have been forced to institute a "No Show" policy which will take effect September 1, 2005. This policy does not apply to patients who call to cancel their appointment 24 or more hours in advance of the scheduled visit, or to patients who have sudden emergencies less than 24 hours before the appointment.

For missed appointments, a “No Show Fee” charge of fifty dollars ($50.00) will be charged to the patient. This charge is not billable to the insurance company and, therefore, will be due before future services are rendered.

Please note that it has been, and will continue to be, our policy to call or email and confirm appointments with our patients one to two days prior to each of their visits.
