Practice policies
A few things to know before your visit.
These simple policies help the practice run smoothly and keep every appointment focused on you.
Paperwork
Any paperwork that takes more than a few minutes to complete must be done during a scheduled appointment.
Emergencies
If your problem is urgent, I will respond as soon as possible. Generally, it is best to call 911 in the event of a true emergency.
Phone messages
I respond to brief questions by telephone on a daily basis, but if your questions require a longer discussion you will need to schedule an appointment.
I usually do not use email for communication with my patients except in unusual circumstances, such as your being out of the country.
Texting
I don't text, as I can't be interrupted when I am with patients.
Missed appointments
Please call me at least 24 hours in advance of a missed appointment as a courtesy. Three or more missed appointments within a year's time will result in fees.
Punctuality
If you are late, I cannot automatically extend your appointment, as I may have other patients scheduled after you.
Payments
Please arrange to have your payments made monthly. Bank cards, credit cards, checks, and cash are all acceptable.
Remedy charges
No homeopathic remedy charges for member patients. Discounted fees on herbal remedies.
Old remedy bottles
Please bring in old remedy bottles for recycling when you are done with them.
Bowenwork
Please dress in loose-fitting, thin clothing.
