The saint Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Hi I was wondering do most clinics expect all the cost for surgery in advance after the deposit or do they tend to take payment on the day ? . Is there any tips to best protect yourself with the cost involved not being lose change ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gillenator Posted September 4, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 4, 2022 Most clinics, if not all of them, collect the balance in full before the procedure starts…the balance due will be noted on the contract the clinic requires and it will outline the costs, the number of grafts, etc. Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 4, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 4, 2022 Most clinics require payment a day before the procedure. Deposit cancellations vary, so make sure you ask them if it’s refundable. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member gillenator Posted September 4, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 4, 2022 Their cancellation policy should also be spelled out in the contract but read it thoroughly because you don’t want any surprises especially on the day of surgery…most clinics will not refund the deposit if you cancel unless you make a re-scheduled date in writing.

You are then covered if they go out of business or scam you. 1 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
