Referrals for new obstetric or gynecologic patients are kindly accepted by fax (613-656-9789). The gynecologic consultations are reviewed and booked according to level of urgency. A limited number of obstetric patients are accepted per month. The appointment date and time is faxed back to the office of the referring physician.
Our goal is to provide access to the best patient care in a timely manner. To facilitate this objective, it is necessary to give every patient an appointment within a mutually convenient timeframe. While we understand that unforeseen circumstances can rarely occur, we have had to implement an appointment cancellation and no-show policy. This enables us to better utilize the available appointment time in an efficient manner to the benefit of all our patients, particularly those that may be in need of more urgent care.
If you are unable to attend your appointment, the courtesy of a call to cancel or reschedule your booking, at least 2 business days in advance, will be greatly appreciated. Appointments are in high demand and your early cancellation will give another patient the possibility for timely care. You should receive a reminder courtesy call one week before your appointment. PLEASE CALL OUR OFFICE TO CONFIRM YOU WILL BE ATTENDING YOUR APPOINTMENT. If we do not receive this confirmation your appointment will be given to another patient.
Late cancellations (ie less than 2 business days) will be considered a "no show" and charged a fee as per our office policy. "No show" charges for initial consultations are $110 and for followup appointments are $33.
TO CANCEL OR CONFIRM APPOINTMENTS, PLEASE CALL 613-686-7580. You can leave a voicemail message 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
Followup appointments are best booked at the time of your last appointment to facilitate followup in a timely fashion.
If Dr. Lal has discussed a referral for you to one of her other specialist colleagues or plans to arrange a special test (for example, an MRI), please call the office if you have not received an appointment date within one month of your visit with Dr. Lal.
