At the time of your service, if you / we believe you have valid insurance coverage, but later find out, for whatever reason, you were not covered, you herewith acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the entire fee. To avoid any unexpected shortfalls, we advise patients to check with their insurance provider before incurring any costs.Any excess payments can also be made by calling 02920750432.
We also reserve the right to seek recovery of any monies remaining unpaid 60 days from the date of the consultation/treatment via collection Agencies and/or through the Small Claims Court. In such circumstances, you shall be liable for any and all additional administrative and/or court costs.
We do accept cheques sent to our trading address below. Telephone payments can be made by calling 02920750432.
