Office Policies
No Show Policy:
We ask you to be considerate of the medical needs of others and call our office promptly within 24 hours of your appointment if you are unable to make your appointment time. If you do not arrive for your appointment or fail to cancel prior to 24 hours before your appointment time, there will be a $50.00 no show fee applied to your account that will need to be paid in full by the next scheduled appointment. This fee cannot be billed to your insurance company.
You will be reminded of your upcoming appointment by phone. If we are unable to confirm your appointment verbally, your appointment will be canceled.
Late Arrival Policy:
The doctor makes every effort to be respectful of our patients’ time and to see our patient on time. Unfortunately, when even one patient arrives late, it can throw off the entire schedule. In addition, rushing or “squeezing in” an appointment shortchanges and contributes to decreased quality of care. Dr. Dave does not overbook patients and she provides ample time for each appointment. If you arrive after your scheduled appointment time you will be asked to reschedule and the no show fee of $50 will be applied. Please consider traffic patterns and parking availability when planning for your child’s appointment.
Southlake Appointments Policy:
If an appointment is canceled any time after 12 noon on the Friday prior to a Monday Southlake appointment, the cancellation policy will be applied. We will be happy to reschedule for the Frisco office in the future. We have limited availability in Southlake. We travel to Southlake on Mondays to serve our patients so that they do not have to travel to Frisco.
After Hour Calls:
We return patient calls by the end of the business day. After hour calls are defined as calls received through the answering service. These calls will accrue a $35.00 after hours call fee applied to your account. This fee cannot be billed to your insurance.
Procedure Policy:
There is a $100 cancellation fee for not giving at least 48-hours’ notice prior to canceling or rescheduling a procedure. Procedure payment is due 24 hours prior to the procedure to avoid the procedure being canceled.
We do not overbook patients; we allow each patient the quality time and consideration necessary for their healthcare needs. We do see patients with highly complex problems that often require additional time.
For this reason, our office requires 24 hours notice prior to canceling or rescheduling an office appointment. We will be unable to reschedule patients that fail to show for a confirmed appointment.
