No-Show, Late, & Cancellation Policy

Benjamin Does NOT offer refunds for change of mind or cancellation of consultations. "Rescheduling is permitted"

1. Cancellation/No Show Policy for your Appointment. I understand that there are times when you must miss an appointment due to emergencies or obligations for work or family. However, when you do not call to cancel an appointment, you may be preventing another patient from getting much needed treatment. Conversely, the situation may arise where another patient fails to cancel and we are unable to schedule you for a visit, due to a seemingly "full" appointment book. A "no show" is someone who misses an appointment without cancelling it within a 48 hour working day in advance. No-shows inconvenience those individuals who need access to medical care in a timely manner.

   How To Cancel Your Appointment If it is necessary to cancel your scheduled appointment, we require that you call Two working days in advance. Appointments are high in demand, and your early cancellation will give another person the possibility to have access to timely medical care.
   
   To cancel an appointment, 8:00 am through 4:30 pm on 0422 22 515. You may also postpone via e-mail confirmation that you were sent 120, 56 and 48 Hours prior your appointment through your patient portal. Take note, the system automatically removes clients whom reschedule 2+ times, you will need to book and pay for your next appointment.

2. Scheduled Appointments We understand that delays can happen, however, we must try to keep the other patients on time. If you are running late, please notify me. If a patient is 15 minutes past their scheduled time, we may have to reschedule your appointment.

   The following are charges for services in the office:

• Same Day Appointment

• NO Show fee equals your appointment value at the time.

• Full consultation No show $200

• Follow up Consultation No Show fee $120

• Saturday No Show Fee $200

• All Unpaid Invoices incur a $20 per month admin fee

• If by any chance a refund is given - a 50% admin fee is applied to your refund. for example. If you have paid $100 you will receive a$50 refund.

• All outstanding invoices will be charged to the card number used upon initial booking - If you don't agree to this, please do not book in.

• Please note, I/We do not refund scheduled / appointments. No refund is applied for cancelled appointments if YOU choose not to come. Rescheduling is accepted.

• Cancellation or postponement due to a sniffle, cold or COVID AKA "THE FLU" will not be accepted and the above fees apply

General House Keeping

• Benjamin does not respond to emails about blood tests, medical issues or health concerns. Please wait until your next appointment with Benjamin.

• Postponing your appointment more than twice will lead to the cancellation of your follow up appointment and you will need to re-book and pay for your session online.
