Cancellations

With the exception of serious emergencies, it is expected that you will keep all of your appointments. If you need to reschedule an appointment, we require a minimum of 24 hours notice. This courtesy, on your part, will make it possible to give your appointment to another patient. There will be a $50 charge to your account if the appointment is cancelled less than 24 hours from the time of your visit.

Emergencies

Our office provides on-call service after-hours. If it is a true emergency, please call 911 or head to the nearest emergency room. For refills or other non-urgent matters, please wait until the next business day to contact us, or simply email us or leave a voicemail for our office that will also be returned the next business day. For truly urgent matters when the office is closed, please call 512-312-7552 and follow the prompts so that Dr. Obayan can be contacted.

Payment

ALL PAYMENT IS DUE AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. This includes copays, coinsurance, and deductibles if applicable. It is the patient’s responsibility to know the terms of their insurance policy and whether or not they have a deductible. If your insurance requires a referral from your Primary Care Doctor, it is your responsibility to have this sent to the office prior to the office visit. Patients seen without proper referrals will be responsible for payment at the time of the visit.

In addition to the many insurances accepted, Nature of Skin Dermatology accepts cash, checks, as well as the following credit and debit cards:

Visa

Mastercard

Discover

American Express
