Missed Appointments
We understand that life gets busy and managing schedules can be a challenge. However, missed appointments or late cancellations prevent other patients from utilizing those valuable time slots. Starting January 1, 2025, a $50 fee will be charged for missed appointments or cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice. For missed appointments at the Wellness Center, the fee will remain $100. For more details, please refer to the attached Financial Policy.
