Policies

Cancellation/Missed Appointment Policy

Please let us know as soon as you can if you have to rearrange an appointment. We require a minimum of one working day (24 hours) notice for regular appointments and two working days (48 hours notice) for appointments longer than 1 hr . A charge will apply if we do not have notice of cancellation or if the appointment is broken without notice. No appointments can be made until the failure to attend fee has been paid. Once payment has been made in full, further appointments can be booked.

  • Give a written response, where required, within 14 working days
