Cancellations & No-Shows:
Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in the therapist’s day that could have been filled by another patient. A minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Appointments cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be subject to a $50 late cancellation fee. Any cancellation or rescheduling made on the same calendar day as the appointment will be subject to a fee of 50% of the scheduled service fee. Missed appointments (no-shows) will also be charged 50% of the scheduled service fee. If you are experiencing symptoms of a contagious illness, please contact us as soon as possible. Exceptions for unexpected illness or emergencies may be considered at the clinic’s discretion. Cancellation requests are considered received based on the timestamp of your phone call, voicemail, email, or online cancellation request, not when clinic staff are available to review the message.
