Appointment Policy
Office Visits are as scheduled according to the severity of your condition and the program of chiropratic care that the doctor feels is best for you. Because, your condition requires numerous appointments over the next few weeks or months, we have designed a Multiple Appointment Program for your convenience. This procedure minimizes your time in the office and facilitates incorporating your appointments into your daily routine.
The frequency of your visitation schedule is of paramount importance to your results, so we ask that each patient assume the responsibility of strict adherence to the appointment program as it is designed for optimal results.
Regardless of how many appointments are scheduled for you each week, please note that it is the frequency of visits that counts, not the days on which you receive the service. If, for any reason, you are unable to keep an appointment, we require that you telephone immediately to reschedule that visit. It is the patient's obligation to make a missed appointment within seven days of any cancellation. Also, this office reserves the right to charge for missed appointments and those appointments canceled without 24 hours notice.
When entering the office on any given visit, please go directly to the front desk and “sign-in”. We sincerely attempt to honor all appointments at the scheduled time. If you are late, you may be asked to wait for the next available appointment. If we are unexpectedly running behind, we will attempt to call you and advise you on the status of your appointment time. If you have any questions regarding our office policy or your appointments, please do not hesitate to ask. |
