Learn About Our Broken Appointment Policy

Broken Appointment Policy

We at West Penn Dental Center strive to provide the best care possible to each patient, without rushing through treatment. We try our best to stay on schedule to eliminate waiting times as we feel our patients’ time is valuable. We can only do this if patients respect their appointment time as well.

We ask that all patients confirm their visits when they receive a call or a text from the office. If we are unable to confirm an appointment despite multiple calls and texts or if a patient is too late to their appointment, the time slot may be offered to one of the many other patients who are waiting for an opening.

We understand that there are some circumstances that are beyond a patient’s control.  We ask that patients give at least a 24-hour notice if an appointment needs to be rescheduled so that we may offer the time slot to another patient.  If a patient fails to give 48 business hours notice or does not show up to their appointment, a $50/hr missed appointment fee may be assessed.  Failure to keep scheduled appointments may result in same day only scheduling.  In some cases, we may be unable to reschedule and may recommend seeking care at an office that is a better fit for the patient’s schedule.
