No-Show Policy for New Patients

 

 

Beginning August 4, 2008 each new patient will be required to pay a $50 non-refundable deposit at the time you make your appointment.  When you come in for your appointment the $50 deposit will be applied to your first office visit.  Instead of paying $150 on your first visit you’ll pay $100.  If you find that it’s necessary to reschedule your appointment you must do so 2 business days (Monday – Thursday) before the date of your appointment or your $50 will be forfeited.   Your deposit will also be forfeited if you are more than 30 minutes late for your appointment and have not called letting us know you are running late.  Your deposit must be made by charge card, by bring in cash, or mailing or bringing in a money order.   Checks will not be accepted.  If you make your deposit by credit card you may schedule your appointment as soon as our staff runs your card through; if paying by money order your appointment will not be scheduled until your money order is received.

 

We’re sorry we have to make this change but due to the number of patients wanting to make appointments, and the number of people making appointments and not showing up or calling to cancel, we find it necessary to put this policy in place.

Office Visit :  $80.00

        EKG :  $25.00
 
Total charge for your
 first visit  $150.00 
  
 
Fees due on day of visit

 

YOUR INITIAL VISIT

 

On your first visit, a complete blood panel will be done. We will be checking your glucose level, cholesterol, triglycerides, thyroid, and getting a general wellness profile. An EKG will also be administered on your first visit.

The results will be discussed with you on your second visit. If there is a result that is dangerously out of range, the doctor will call and advise before your next scheduled appointment.

On your first visit, the doctor will prescribe a plan of treatment which may include any or all of the following: a variety of supplements, an optional B-12 injection, an exercise program, meal plans, and medications when appropriate.

 

 

On your initial visit to the center we request that you make arrangements for child care. This is an important time for you and the doctor to discuss your history, and develop your personalized plan for weight loss. We have found that the most success on this visit comes with as few distractions as possible.

New Established Patient No Show Policy! PLEASE READ

Recently, we have been experiencing an increased number of patients who have failed to call and cancel their appointments.  In an effort to correct this problem we have found it necessary to implement a No-Show Policy for our office.  We truly regret having to implement a policy such as this, but in fairness to our patients who need to make an appointment and could have been scheduled at the time of a No-Show patient, we need to take actions necessary to see that our appointments are open and available for our patients.

Effective August 1, 2009 there will be a $25.00 charge for any patient that misses, two (2) scheduled appointments per calendar year, without having given 24 hours or more advanced notice

Established Patient Charges

Your monthly (every 4 weeks), recurring charge for follow-up visits will be $80.00.

(Prices in Waco vary slightly.)

This includes consultation with Doctor, a B-12 injection, supplements and a prescription for an appetite suppressant which will need to be filled at a pharmacy of your choice.

Protein products are available for purchase as meal replacements.

 

Any time a patient consults

with a doctor, in-office, for any reason, the fee is $80.00.

Other Useful Information

Insurance
Insurance companies have historically NOT covered weight loss; however, some are becoming more receptive to the idea of treating obesity. We do not file insurance in the office at this time but we will supply you with a Super Bill which provides you all the information you need to file your own claim for reimbursement.

Payment
We accept cash, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express and all debit cards. 

Hours
Because our doctors rotate between the three offices, our hours vary greatly from office to office. Please call for appointments at the office of your choice.

Appointments
Appointments are necessary. Our new patient appointments are scheduled several weeks out. Please plan ahead and call to schedule.

Gift Certificates
If you have someone you would like to give a gift of good health through weight loss we are now offering gift certificates.  If you would like more information give one of our offices a call.  Anyone on our staff will be happy to assist you.
