The normal therapy hour consists of anywhere between 50-60 minutes. By specific request or based on extraordinary circumstances, sessions may be scheduled for longer time periods.

In the same manner as Dr. Prevor reserves the patient's scheduled appointment, the patient is expected to attend as agreed. If for any reason the patient needs to reschedule, this should be done at a minimum of 24 hours in advance, or a cancellation or no-show fee may be imposed.
