Missed Appointment Policy
When it comes to parenting, you can expect the unexpected. We understand that things come up. Sometimes you can’t make it to a scheduled appointment. We get that. But please don’t leave us waiting. Just give us a quick call to let us know that you won’t be coming. We won’t be mad. But we will be able to open the appointment time for another child.
To make sure that all of our patients get the care they need, Wee Care Pediatrics asks that you please notify us if you are not going to be able to keep your scheduled appointment. Patients with three missed appointments and/or families with five missed appointments in the past twelve months will be required to come into the clinic for walk-in appointments only. Your child will still be able to see a doctor, but you’ll have to wait at the clinic for the next available provider.
If you keep leaving us waiting, we’ll have to keep you waiting. No one wants that to happen. Just remember to give us a quick call if you’re going to miss an appointment when something comes up.
