Copayments and deductibles are non-refundable once the service has been rendered.

2. Private Pay Services
-
Refunds for self-pay clients are considered only if payment was made in error or the service was not provideddue to a cancellation by the clinic.

If a session is missed without appropriate notice (less than 24 hours), the session fee may be forfeited as per our cancellation policy.
