How Your $50 Appointment Deposit Works
When your appointment includes a $50 deposit, it is applied to visit-related charges like copays, out-of-pocket services, or supplements, and carries over to future visits until used. If our benefits check 24 hours before your visit shows no visit-related costs, you can request a refund. Cancel more than 24 hours ahead for a full refund; within 24 hours, the deposit is kept as a late cancellation or no-show fee.
Allergy Treatment Now Available by Telehealth
Seasonal or year-round allergies getting in your way? Allergy treatment is now available through telehealth for patients across Texas, New York, Virginia, and DC, so you can get relief without leaving home.
