What can I expect at the Zehring Clinic?

Getting to know each patient is of vital importance and why each appointment provides enough time for thorough questioning and listening.

Dr. Zehring uses evidence-based medicine practices to direct his care and he also partners with his patients for an experience where the patient feels educated and empowered.

Current Patient 

What is your cancellation and no-show policy?

We reserve your appointment time specifically for you and you alone. As a courtesy to those who are on the wait list, please call at least 24 hours or one business day before your appointment to cancel. (For example, if your appointment is on Monday at 4pm, please call no later than the previous Friday at 4pm to cancel).

If you cancel or reschedule a visit without one business days’ notice, the cancellation feesare 100% of the cost of the appointment. 

We understand that no one wants to waste money on no show fees. For this reason, our office staff will always try to call and remind you about each appointment as a courtesy. Please keep your most up to date phone number on file at all times. 

Late Arrivals

If you arrive late for your appointment your doctor will be able to see you only for the allotted time left of your scheduled appointment. At such times, it may be necessary to schedule an additional appointment to allow you and the doctor to have sufficient time to address your treatment concerns. 

Medication Refills

Please note that it is the patient’s responsibility to request refills at least 10 days before running out of medications if they do not have a follow-up appointment scheduled. Refill requests are only evaluated during regular business hours. 

We do not authorize refills that come from the pharmacy. You MUST contact our office to receive a refill.

Please note, that certain medications (controlled substances) will not be eligible for a refill without a follow-up visit.

Emergency and Crisis

What is your emergency/crisis policy?

At the Zehring Clinic, we are not a crisis center, meaning that we ONLY have providers who provides services during regular business hours.

If you are a currently receiving services at the Zehring Clinic and have an urgent matter that you believe cannot wait until the following business day it is likely that your situation is emergent and would be better served by calling 911 or crisis services listed below.

During Regular Business Hours, "Urgent" appointment will be available pending provider availability.
