Late Arrival Policy

Please arrive on time. Your appointment time is reserved for you. If you arrive late, your appointment will still end at the scheduled time and the full fee will be charged.

Cancellation Policy Updated Dec 5, 2022

Due to the high demand for appointments, we now require a minimum of 48 hours notice to cancel or change appointments, except in cases of illness, unavoidable emergencies, or extreme inclement weather. This extra notice offers an increased opportunity for other patients to receive treatment by filling the cancellation timeslot.

The full fee will be charged for late cancellations and no-shows.

If you need to cancel/change an appointment, please do so through our online booking or phone the clinic during our business hours to ensure we receive your cancellation notification in the required amount of time to avoid being charged the appointment fee.

We do not accept rescheduling or cancellations via email.

Note: Not receiving an automated reminder is not an acceptable excuse for missing an appointment. We send automated reminders as a courtesy. They should not be relied upon as your sole method of knowing when your appointment is.
