Appointment Policy | Integrated Functional Health
Practice Policies

Appointment & Cancellation Policy

Our time together is reserved exclusively for you. Please review the following policy before booking your appointment.

Our Commitment to You

At Integrated Functional Health, every appointment is a reserved block of time dedicated entirely to your care. When a session goes unfilled due to a cancellation or no-show, another client who needed that time loses their opportunity. This policy exists to protect the integrity of your care and the availability of our practitioners. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Credit Card on File

A valid credit card is required to reserve all appointments at Integrated Functional Health. Your card will be securely stored at the time of booking.

No charge is applied at the time of booking. Your card is held on file only. You will not be billed simply for scheduling your appointment. Charges occur only in the event of a policy violation as described below, or at the time services are rendered.

No-Show & Late Cancellation Fees

The following fees apply when a client does not attend a scheduled appointment or cancels with insufficient notice. Fees are assessed at the full session rate for the service that was booked.

Situation Definition Fee Applied
No-Show Client does not attend and provides no notice prior to the appointment start time. Full session rate
Late Cancellation Client cancels or requests to reschedule with less than 24 hours notice before the scheduled appointment time. Full session rate
Timely Cancellation Client cancels or reschedules with 24 hours or more advance notice. No charge

Session rates vary by service type. The fee applied will reflect the full published rate of the specific appointment that was scheduled.

Prepayment Requirement

We understand that life happens. However, consistent missed appointments affect our ability to serve all clients effectively.

After the first policy violation, full prepayment will be required before any future appointments can be scheduled. This prepayment is applied directly toward the cost of your session. If you attend as scheduled, no additional charge is incurred.

Providing Timely Notice

To cancel or reschedule your appointment without incurring a fee, please provide at least 24 hours of advance notice using one of the following methods:

  1. Cancellation link in your confirmation email — The fastest and preferred method. A cancellation link is included in every booking confirmation and reminder email you receive.
  2. Contact us directly — Call or text our office. Please do not leave a voicemail as your sole notice. A confirmed response from our team is required to consider a cancellation received.
  3. Email — Send a cancellation request to our office email. Cancellations submitted by email are considered received upon a reply confirmation from our team.

Notice of cancellation is measured from the scheduled appointment start time, not from when a message was sent without confirmation of receipt.

Medical Emergencies & Exceptions

We understand that genuine emergencies occur. In the event of a documented medical emergency, unexpected hospitalization, or other serious extenuating circumstance, please contact us as soon as possible. Fee waivers in these situations are granted at the sole discretion of the practitioner and are considered on a case-by-case basis.

💬

If you are experiencing a difficult situation, please reach out to us directly. We are here to support your wellness journey and will always do our best to work with you in good faith.
