It is important to understand your financial obligations when considering cosmetic surgery. At Dr. Lee’s office you will be made aware of all the costs associated with your surgery so there are no surprises. Our patient coordinator will work with you to answer questions about our fees and explore the payment options available, so you are always informed.
Dr. Lee spends a considerable amount of time with every patient. Consultations are comprehensive, unhurried, and conducted by Dr. Lee. Our consultation fee is $300. At the time you call to schedule your consultation we ask that you provide a valid credit card. If you do not have a credit card, you may send a check as prepayment for your consultation to secure your appointment. Because we are holding that time for you, we ask that you notify us in advance if your plans change so we can reschedule. We will charge the full fee if you do not call 24 hours in advance to cancel your appointment.
Should you decide to schedule surgery with Dr. Lee there is a deposit to hold your surgery date. This fee is 20% of the surgeon’s fee and will be applied to your total cost of surgery. Full payment for your procedure is due three weeks prior to your surgery date.
Our office accepts:
Financing is available for either a portion of, or the total sum of your procedure. Our patient coordinator can help guide you through the quick and easy approval process. Please visit www.carecredit.com for more information.
Dr. Lee provides for his patient’s comfort and safety by doing his procedures at the highly accredited facilities, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and Park Cities Surgery Center.
Your surgical fee will include:
Your surgical fee will not include:
We do not accept any insurance plans. Aesthetic procedures are generally not covered by insurance. We will be happy to discuss any exceptions at the time of your consultation. Should your procedure indicate a valid insurance claim, any pre-certification necessary will be your responsibility. Full payment for services is your responsibility and any reimbursement is between you and your carrier.
In rare cases a situation may arise that could force you to cancel or postpone your surgery. Any changes to a set surgery schedule impacts not only you, but the surgeon, his staff, the facility, the anesthesiologist and other patients.
If you need to reschedule your surgical date, an additional 20% fee of Dr. Lee’s surgery fee will be charged if notice is given less than six weeks prior to your original surgical date.
Should you cancel more than six weeks prior to surgery, a $500 cancellation fee will be charged. Should you cancel less than six weeks prior to your surgery, the entire deposit is non-refundable.
Dr. Lee has built a strong reputation for his skill and judgment and is confident in his ability to deliver exceptional outcomes. However, no one can guarantee a perfect result, particularly in the subjective realm of aesthetic surgery. Occasionally patients will experience a complication or request a revision.
If it becomes necessary to return a patient to surgery, either on an emergency basis or one that is elective, there will be a fee for surgical revisions to cover treatment delivered by the surgeon, the facility, and the anesthesiologist. These revisions or complications are normally not covered by your individual insurance policy.
We take all the necessary precautions to guard against complications or revisions, but when they present themselves, it is important for all patients to understand this financial policy.
