Appointment Protocols

Preparing for Your Visit

Everything you need to know about our office policies, arrival procedures, and what to expect during your appointment to ensure a smooth and supportive experience.

Ultrasound Preparation
There is no special preparation required for your ultrasound appointment. If you are scheduled for a first trimester ultrasound, we do ask that your bladder be on the fuller side. Drinking a small amount of water prior to your arrival can help improve visualization.

Visitors
Due to the nature of our specialty practice, we allow one companion, over the age of 10, to accompany you to your appointment. This policy helps ensure our sonographers and physicians have the space and focus needed to provide you with the highest level of care. Failure to adhere to this policy may result in your appointment being rescheduled.

For safety reasons, any minors brought to our office and left in the waiting room must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Patient Information Updates
We kindly ask that patients notify our office of any changes to insurance, address, or referring OB provider as soon as possible.

Insurance & Billing
We are a specialty practice and bill as such. Our office will verify that your insurance coverage is active and that we are in-network; however, it is the patient’s responsibility to contact their insurance provider regarding deductibles, co-insurance, or out-of-pocket costs. We are happy to provide any information you may need to assist with this process.

New Patient Arrival & Check-In
If you are a new patient, please arrive 5–10 minutes early and bring a valid photo ID and your insurance card. While we work closely with Sharp providers, we are a private practice with our own registration process and policies.

Please be sure to check in with our front desk upon arrival; registration paperwork will be provided at that time. Forms may also be completed ahead of time by downloading and printing them from our website. Please note that checking in through the Sharp app does not replace checking in with our office.

Cancellations & No-Shows
We require 24 hours’ notice for appointment cancellations. A $30 no-show fee will be applied to appointments missed or canceled within this time frame.

Our Commitment to Care
Our goal is to provide excellent, thorough, and compassionate care to every patient. We appreciate your kindness and patience, which go a long way in helping us create a supportive and respectful environment for everyone!

Payment Terms

For our painting services, we believe in transparent pricing and clear payment terms. Here's what to expect in terms of payment for your painting project.

Deposit

We require a deposit of 50% of the total project cost before starting work on your painting project. This deposit ensures that we have the necessary materials and equipment to complete your project to the highest standard.

Payment Schedule

For larger painting projects, we may require interim payments as work progresses. We'll provide you with a payment schedule at the start of your project, so you'll know exactly when payments are due.

Payment Methods

There is no restriction on the types of payments that can be made, so you can pay with cash, checks, or credit cards. It is expected that full payment will be made once the painting job is finished.

Additional Fees

If extensive preparation work, specialized equipment, or issues arise during painting, there might be additional fees. Before beginning work on your project, we will always provide a comprehensive breakdown of any additional fees.

Late Payments

We reserve the right to charge interest on any late payments. If we have payment issues, we will always communicate with you and work with you to find a solution that works for everyone.

Pricing FAQs

You might have some inquiries regarding our painting services. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we get.

How do you determine the price of a painting project?

The price of a painting job depends on a number of things, such as its size and difficulty, the type of paint and materials used, and the amount of prep work that needs to be done.

Are there any additional fees?

There may be extra costs if a lot of prep work is needed, if the job needs special tools, or if there are problems that come up out of the blue while painting. Before we start working on your project, we will always give you a full breakdown of any extra costs.

How do I know I'm getting a fair price for my painting project?

For all of our painting services, we work hard to offer affordable prices. In addition to answering any questions you may have, we are happy to give you a thorough breakdown of our pricing.

Can I choose to purchase my own paint?

If you prefer, you can go out and buy your own paint. However, we believe you should first consult with us to ensure that the paint you select is appropriate for the project you have in mind.
