| Financial commitment may be
an important part of your decision to have cosmetic surgery. The following information
is provided to you in advance as you investigate options for achieving your cosmetic
surgery goals.
- There
is no charge for your initial cosmetic consultation.
- Following
your consultation, you will meet with our Financial Coordinator who will review
fee estimates and payment details for the procedures you discussed with Dr. Smith.
You will receive a copy of the estimates at the time of your visit or within one
week if not completed at the time of your consultation.
- A
$500.00 deposit is required prior to any cosmetic procedure being scheduled at
a surgical facility. The deposit is applied to Dr. Smith's surgical fee. Should
you cancel the procedure within two weeks of the scheduled date and not reschedule,
$250.00 of the deposit is refunded. No refund is made for procedures canceled
within one week of the surgery date and not rescheduled.
- For
in-office cosmetic procedures, a $100.00 deposit is required prior to the procedure
being scheduled. The deposit is applied to the surgical fee. Should you cancel
the procedure within two weeks of the scheduled date and not reschedule, $50.00
of the deposit is refunded. No refund is made for procedures canceled within one
week of the surgery date and not rescheduled.
- Payment
for Dr. Smith's fee for cosmetic procedures performed in a surgical facility is
due at least two weeks prior to the scheduled surgery date. Payment for in-office
procedures is due in full prior to your being prepared for the procedure in the
office.
- Payment
may be made by cash, cashier's check, personal check or credit card. VISA and
MasterCard are accepted.
