Dr. Campbell is dedicated to providing you with the best care possible. His treatment plan will include the number and frequency of visits that he projects will benefit you. For this reason, it is crucial that you adhere to the plan and do not miss appointments.

We understand that it is not reasonable to ask that you never cancel an appointment. However, if an appointment is canceled, it should be rescheduled for the next day.

If you cancel three appointments in a month, without rescheduling, Dr. Campbell will discontinue your care due to the inability to adhere to his treatment plan.

These appointments require thirty to sixty minutes. Please note that if you are late for your appointment, you may be asked to wait for the next patient to complete their therapy, or have your treatment time shortened. Walk-ins are welcome, but they may affect your time.

We require 24 hour notice for cancellation and rescheduling of appointments.

• If the 24 hour advance is not given for a Decompression treatment, you will be charged $55.
• If the 24 hour advance is not given for a Hyperbaric treatment, you will be charged the full  amount of the treatment you missed.
• If you are late for your Hyperbaric treatment, you forfeit that time and will be charged for the time you scheduled.
• I understand that by booking an appointment, I am reserving the chamber for a specific amount of time. Time begins at the start of my scheduled appointment and stops at the end of my scheduled appointment. If I am late, I forfeit that time in the chamber and will be charged for the time scheduled.

I have read and understand the Appointment Policy.
