Bookings / Cancellations / Rearrangement Policy
Cancellation Policy:
We aim to provide as flexible a service as possible but we are a small business and there are significant costs to us associated with patients who cancel last minute. These are particularly impactful for our face to face clinics where we have significant overheads and little chance of filling last minute cancellation slots.
Online Clinic Policy:
Should you choose to cancel or rearrange your appointment, please provide us with 48 BUSINESS hours notice. Please note this does not include weekends or bank holidays.
If you cancel with more than 48 business hours notice you will receive a full refund back to your payment card.
(Please note this is automatic and can take 10 days processing time by the credit card company.)
If you cancel, rearrange your appointment or do not show for your appointment with less than 48 business hours notice, the fees are non refundable. REGARDLESS OF REASON.
Face to Face Appointments:
There is a £25 rearrangement fee should you choose to cancel or rearrange your appointment, with more than 48 BUSINESS hours notice. Please note this does not include weekends or bank holidays.
If you cancel, rearrange your appointment or do not show for your appointment with less than 48 business hours notice, the fees are non refundable. REGARDLESS OF REASON.
If you think you cannot make it to the clinic but could see someone online, we can switch your appointment to an online one at no charge.
Histamine Appointments:
There is a £25 rearrangement fee should you choose to cancel or rearrange your appointment, with more than 48 BUSINESS hours’ notice. Please note this does not include weekends or bank holidays.
If you cancel, rearrange your appointment or do not show for your appointment with less than 48 business hours’ notice, the fees are non refundable. REGARDLESS OF REASON.
Thank you for your understanding.

Monthly Plan Terms and Conditions
Fair use policy
Our aim is for everyone to have the same high-quality experience with Menopause Care. If you require additional full length consultations over and above those included in your chosen plan, these will be charged at full price. Additional blood tests may also be charged.If you’d like more coaching support, just let us know. And we will help support you with that. Additional coaching appointments are £50 per session.If you have ad hoc medical questions, your care coordinator will make sure that the right person in the team answers them. They will aim to respond within 48 hours Monday to Friday (although during busy periods, this may not be possible). The care plan is not an emergency or out of hours service. In an emergency, please call 111 or 999.
Cancellations and missed appointments when on a care plan
If you need to reschedule your appointment, please let your coordinator know at least 48 hours before the appointment. Failure to let us know more than 48 hours before your appointment – or missing your appointment completely – will incur a £100 fee. This covers the cost of the doctor’s time.
Prescriptions on our care plan
The Care only Plan does not cover the cost of medications. You need to add in the medications to the plan via your care co-ordinator. If you request a prescription and your doctor feels it falls outside medical guidelines, or isn’t in your best interests, they have the right to not prescribe this. They will use their knowledge and experience to recommend the right treatment for you. If you lose your medication, we will need to charge you a fee for the cost of replacing your prescription.If you need to request additional prescriptions when on a care plan, the £37 charge will be waived. The care plan includes the cost of ad hoc prescription requests.
Cancelling your care plan
If you wish to cancel your plan after the 3 month window, then just email carecoordinator@menopausecare.co.uk or our team to do so. We will cancel your subscription within 48 hours of the request being made. We will not provide refunds for the previous months.
After your first 3 months on the plan, you can cancel your payments with us.
If you’ve used more than 3 doctors appointments in your first 3 months, you will need to continue your payments until 6 months and then you can cancel. If you cancel your plan and you have an appointment scheduled that same month, we will cancel the appointment you have scheduled. If you’ve cancelled your plan and you still attend your appointment, we will charge you for that month’s care and cancel any future appointments.
Other Terms and Conditions
We can only see patients who are in the UK at the time of their appointment. Should it become clear you are not in the UK at the appointment time, the doctor will not be able to continue with the appointment and no refund can be offered.
We need to verify the identity of patients at the time of appointment using photo ID
All patients require a new patient consultation for their first visit to this clinic regardless of whether they have been seen in another menopause clinic or started on HRT
You will be asked to confirm you are not seeing your usual NHS doctor in this clinic.
