Appointment Policy

Our goal is to provide quality medical care in a timely manner.  In order to do so, we have had to implement an appointment/cancellation policy.

Cancellation/Rescheduling of an Appointment
In order to be respectful to all our patients, please call our office promptly if you are unable to keep an appointment.  We require at least 2 hours’ notice so your appointment can be given to someone else.  Our operators take calls 8 a.m.-5 p.m., and we will be closed at 12-1 p.m. for lunch.

Late cancellations will be considered a “no show”.

“No Show” Policy for Regular Appointments
A “no show” is when a patient misses an appointment without canceling 2 hours in advance or fails to arrive at the time of a scheduled appointment.  Both of these will be recorded in the patient’s chart as a “no show”.

The first and second time there is a “no show”, the patient will be notified by mail and/or messenger.

The third no-show will result in the patient being permanently dismissed from our practice.
