Terms & Conditions
Welcome to Well Clinic. To provide the best services and accommodate the needs of our patients, we have established the following policies:
Appointment Booking
Booking Methods: Appointments can be booked through our online booking system or by contacting me directly at becca@wellclinic.co.nz
Booking Confirmation: All appointments are considered tentative until confirmed by Well Clinic.
New Patient Information
New Patient Forms: New patients are required to complete and submit the ‘Patient Registration Form’ form a minimum of 72 hours prior to the initial appointment, and ideally one week prior. A 3-day food and symptom diary is also required. These will both be sent at the time of booking.
Health History: Providing accurate health history information is essential for effective naturopathic care. Please ensure all information is up-to-date and accurate. Please submit any recent pathology or investigations to becca@wellclinic.co.nz.
Arrival Time
Arrival: Please arrive at least 5 minutes prior to your scheduled consultation time to ensure your appointment starts on time.
Late Arrivals
Late Arrival: If you arrive late to your appointment, your consultation will conclude at the originally scheduled time to respect subsequent bookings. The full consultation fee will still apply.
Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy
Your appointment time is reserved exclusively for you. As Clinical Care Packages involve structured treatment planning and allocated clinical time, consistency and attendance are essential for achieving optimal outcomes.
Notice Period: A minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required to cancel or reschedule any consultation. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice will incur a cancellation fee of $50. Failure to attend (non-attendance), will incur the full consultation fee.
For patients enrolled in a Clinical Care Package, missed or late-cancelled appointments will be deducted from your scheduled consultations within the package.
Rescheduling: Where sufficient notice is provided, appointments may be rescheduled within the duration of your package, subject to availability. Repeated cancellations or rescheduling may impact treatment progress and continuity of care.
Practitioner Rescheduling: In the unlikely event that your practitioner needs to reschedule, you will be notified as soon as possible and offered the next available suitable appointment time.
Payment Policy
All initial consultation payments must be paid in full at the time of booking, in order to secure your appointment and complete patient registration.
By enrolling in one of our Clinical Care Packages, you are committing to the full duration and total investment. The packages are structured treatment programs designed to provide continuity, accountability, and measurable progress over the agreed timeframe.
Package Payment Structure:
- The first payment is required at the time of booking to secure your initial appointment.
- The remaining balance is divided into equal fortnightly payments, as outlined in your selected package.
- Fortnightly payments will be automatically processed on the agreed billing schedule following your initial consultation.
Payment Terms:
- Fortnightly payments must be maintained as scheduled to continue receiving consultations and practitioner support.
- Missed or declined payments may result in postponement of upcoming appointments until the account is brought up to date.
- Packages are non-transferable and non-refundable once commenced, as clinical time, preparation, and case analysis are allocated in advance.
Early Withdrawal:
Should you wish to discontinue your Clinical Foundations Package or Advanced Clinical Care Package prior to completion, a minimum of four weeks’ written notice is required. Fortnightly payments during this four-week notice period must be completed in full. Consultations scheduled within this period may be used as normal.
For the Clinical Diagnostic & Optimisation Package, early withdrawal is not available once testing has been ordered or processed. As this package includes DNA and microbiome testing costs integrated into the payment structure, the full program investment remains payable.
Accepted Payment Methods: We accept:
Credit cards
Debit cards
Bank transfer by arrangement
