Office policy regarding late appointments, no-shows and short notice cancellations.

I schedule appointments so each client receives the right amount of time as determined at the time of booking.
As a courtesy, if you ask for a reminder call or email I will contact you 24 hours in advance. If you need to reschedule your appointment please contact me 24 h or more in advance so I can reschedule you and accommodate clients on my wait list.

If you’re late for your appointment I will do my very best to accommodate you for the remaining time.
If you are ten minutes late into a fifteen minute appointment, I may not be able to provide the service you are accustomed to receiving from me and you will be charged for the appointment.
If you are late for longer appointments I will accommodate you for the remaining time and please expect to pay for the whole appointment time.

Short notice cancellations are understandable within limits.
Illness, car issues, family emergencies and the like are all forgiven without question.

If you’ve forgotten your appointment, please expect to be charged.

I make my living by selling my time. If that time is lost due to a no-show or short notice cancellation, the income is lost to me forever and cannot be retrieved.

If I’m late for your appointment, you will receive the full time. If I double book your appointment in error with someone else, you will receive a re-booking of that appointment at no charge.

I appreciate your consideration and thank you for allowing me to serve you.
