No Show Policy

Missed Appointments

Due to the high number of patients requesting appointments, waiting times can be long. Because of this, the Pain Management Center has a low tolerance for missed appointments. This is our policy for patients who do not show up for their appointments.

You are a no-show if you:

  • Miss an appointment without telling us.
  • Miss an appointment with less than one day鈥檚 notice.
  • Miss an appointment because you have arrived 15 minutes late or later than the scheduled time.

If you must miss a scheduled appointment, please call our office the day before the appointment or three days before a new appointment. You can leave messages at all times including evenings and weekends.

If you no-show three times in a 12 month period, you may be discharged from the clinic.

For new appointments (evaluations), we request three days notice in order to have enough time to reschedule the appointment time. If you miss any new appointment (physician, physical therapy, or behavioral medicine) without any notice, we will be unable to reschedule your appointment.
