Elkhorn Dermatology's practice policies

Appointment scheduling policy

At Elkhorn Dermatology, we are committed to delivering timely, professional, and patient-centered care. To ensure appointment availability and to respect the time of our patients and providers, we kindly ask that you review and follow the scheduling policies outlined below:

Late Arrivals

Patients arriving more than 15 minutes after their scheduled appointment time may need to be rescheduled. While we understand that unforeseen delays can occur and will make reasonable efforts to accommodate late arrivals, this may not be possible if it impacts other scheduled patients or the quality of care. In such cases, we will assist in rescheduling your appointment at the next available time.

Late Cancellations

Appointments canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice may require a non-refundable $100 booking fee to schedule future visits, which will be applied toward the cost of the appointment if attended as scheduled.

Missed Appointments

Missed appointments without prior notice will require a non-refundable $100 booking fee to schedule future visits, which will be applied toward the cost of the appointment if attended as scheduled. Repeated missed appointments may result in termination of the patient-provider relationship at the discretion of the practice.

Our Commitment

This policy is designed to respect the time of our providers and ensure appointment availability for all clients. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a smooth and efficient scheduling process.

Return and refund policy

Refund Policy for Services

At Elkhorn Dermatology, we are committed to providing high-quality, personalized medical and aesthetic care. Due to the nature of our services, all payments for visits, procedures, and treatments are final.

We do not offer refunds for services rendered. This includes completed appointments, in-office procedures, and treatment packages.

Pre-purchased services and treatment packages are non-refundable. Once purchased, funds may be applied as a credit toward other services within the practice. This policy applies regardless of whether treatments have been partially or fully completed.

Medical Exception Policy

In the event that a client develops a new medical condition or experiences a change in health status that makes the pre-purchased service no longer clinically appropriate, a partial refund may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

To be eligible for consideration, the client must provide written documentation from a licensed physician confirming the medical contraindication. All requests are subject to review and approval by Elkhorn Dermatology. Approved refunds, if any, will be issued only for the unused portion of the service package, and any administrative or consultation fees may be deducted.

Elkhorn Dermatology reserves the right to deny refund requests that do not meet these requirements or that lack appropriate medical documentation. This policy is intended to ensure patient safety while maintaining fairness and consistency in our practice.

Product Refund Policy

Elkhorn Dermatology offers carefully selected, high-quality medical-grade products. All product sales are final. For safety and quality control reasons, we do not accept returns or exchanges on purchased products.

Payment policy

Full payment is required on the day services are rendered. Elkhorn Dermatology accepts most major credit and debit cards, cash, checks, including HSA and FSA accounts. Financing options may be available through Cherry Payment Plans, subject to third-party approval and terms.

Security and payment verification

Elkhorn Dermatology accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. To ensure secure transactions:

  • The billing address must match the credit card information on file
  • A valid CID/CVN/CVV security code is required for credit card transactions

Elkhorn Dermatology reserves the right to refuse or cancel any transaction suspected of fraud, unauthorized use, or legal non-compliance.
