Deposits

Starting Jan 1, 2023

Deposits: once scheduled you will pay a deposit $250 nonrefundable deposit.  This deposit is not refundable for any reason as it covers scheduling costs.

Cancellations, disputes, no shows, or being unable to continue with surgery (due to medical reasons) are not valid reasons not to pay for the scheduling process you initiate.  Please do not initiate the process if you are not sure you will be able to follow through.

Rescheduling: there will be a 175 rescheduling fee to reschedule your second appointment.  You may reschedule once with a rescheduling fee, but after your second appointment, a new deposit will be required.   If you must cancel and reschedule at a later date, we can hold your deposit up to 4 months (120 days from date paid).  Cancellations less than 3 days from surgery or ‘no shows’ for surgery will automatically void your deposit.   If  your deposit is voided or expires,  you would just pay a new deposit to reschedule (no rescheduling fee).  If your surgery date is canceled without a deposit being paid, there will be a rescheduling fee in addition to the deposit to reschedule.

Any funds paid will still be deducted from your overall costs.

We will be using Square for invoicing. Fees for payments are the same as before. We hope this will help streamline the process (less regulations) and make things more affordable while prices (gas/food/ etc) continue to rise.

Read Carefully:

By making a deposit, I confirm that I have read, understood, and agree to the following terms regarding my deposit:

  • a scheduling deposit is required at the time of scheduling my appointment to cover reservation, admin fees and will not be refundable.
  • if I reschedule, my next appointment must take place within the scheduling (open calendar) dates
  • I will be responsible for a rescheduling fee//or//new deposit if I cancel my surgery and later reschedule my appointment.
  • I will be responsible for a rescheduling fee+deposit if I do not pay the deposit and the hospital must cancel my date.
  • my appointment is scheduled even if I have not paid the deposit.
  • my deposit is due upon scheduling my surgery. If not received in 5 days, my surgery will be cancelled and a rescheduling fee will apply.

*All “fees” mentioned on this website are billed to the patient to cover actual expenses that have already been incurred by the patient and/or paid for by our office at the time of scheduling. We do try to keep fees as minimal as possible but these are costs for administration services (from sources outside our office) and are the responsibility of the patient.

Your deposit

Deposits are due at the time of making your appointment.

Please read the information below thoroughly for details regarding the deposit before choosing your surgery date. For questions, please feel free to email. Payment options are below.

Who must make a deposit?

Everyone who makes an appointment. Deposits are due at the time you make the appointment.

How will I make my deposit?

You will receive an email invoice which will allow you to use your credit or debit card to make your payment online. If you do not receive an email invoice, it means we do not have your email address. It is the patient’s responsibility to alert us if the invoice is not received.  If you have an issue just let us know, we will work with you on a resolution.

When will I make my deposit?

You will pay your deposit at the time of making your appointment (5 day grace period). You must email your contact information to the office, and we will email you an invoice with directions for paying your deposit. If the deposit is not received in 5 days of setting your date, your surgery date will  be cancelled and a rescheduling fee applied.

How much is my deposit? Does it apply to my surgery fee?

Your deposit will be $250 – due when you schedule. ($250 for vasectomy reversals / 750 for cosmetics). There will be a fee taken out by the payment for all transactions/ card fee. The fee will be added to your balance (usually $15-45 depending on the amount sent).

The deposit is deducted from your total surgery amount. The balance due will be paid at the hospital when you arrive for your surgery (cash only). Funding ministries should contact us about paying the balance. Fees for sending will be the responsibility of the patient.

Is the deposit refundable/transferable? What if I have to cancel or reschedule?

No. The deposit is automatically non-refundable- but may be transferred one time within 120 days to a new surgery date, if guidelines *above are followed (surgery must take place within the hold time of the deposit).  Please be sure to check with us to see if you have a credit.

Can I pay my whole surgery in advance this way?

No, we no longer have a payment plan.  We can only take the deposit in advance at this time.
