PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL YOUR APPOINTMENT IF YOUR CHILD IS SICK

Please contact us if your child, or attending caregiver, is sick and we'll find the best way to support your child.

1. In-Person Visit
   1. If you are, or your child is, sick we still prefer to see your child in-person.
   2. If you are, or your child is, too sick to travel to the office, in most cases, we would prefer to convert your appointment to a virtual appointment at the same day and time.
2. Virtual Visit
   1. Most illnesses are not a reason to cancel a virtual appointment
   2. If you anticipate any challenges attending your scheduled virtual appointment, please contact our office at least 48 hours in advance so we can best accommodate your needs.
   3. A missed appointment fee may apply if you miss or cancel your virtual appointment (having switched from an in-person appointment) without sufficent notice.
