We understand that situations may arise in which you must cancel your scheduled appointment. Therefore, we request at least 24 hours notice for cancelled or rescheduled appointments. Patients who do not show up for their scheduled appointments (“no shows”), patients who cancel their appointments less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled time (“late cancellations”), or patients that reschedule their appointments less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled time (“late rescheduled appointments”) may incur a charge.

We hereby notify and reserve the right to charge a fee to our patients who fall into any of these 3 categories, with less than 24 hours notice according to the following fee schedule:

First occurence: Patient will be charged a $20 fee.

Second occurence: Patient will be charged a $35 fee.

Third occurence: Patient will be charged a $50 fee.

Patients may be charged the full price of the scheduled visit, for any no show, late cancellations, or late rescheduled appointments after the third occurrence.

We understand that special unavoidable circumstances may cause you to cancel or reschedule within 24 hours, but we do firmly believe that a good physician/patient relationship is based upon understanding and good communication.

Please call the office at (973) 694-6260 if you have any questions regarding this policy.
