Scheduling
Appointments
We realize that our patients’ time is valuable, and we make every effort to see patients at their scheduled time. However, occasionally, our office falls behind schedule.
We ask for your understanding; we, also, ask that patients provide as much advanced notice as possible when running late
for an appointment or when needing to cancel. With this advanced notice, the time can be scheduled for another patient.
