We may change the private medical services:

  • 5.1.1. to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and

These changes should not affect your use of the services or the anticipated outcomes arising as a result of the services.

5.2. More significant changes to the services.

In addition, we may make more substantial changes to the services as described on our website or in our brochures but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to cancel the appointment and receive a refund.

6. PROVIDING THE SERVICES

6.1. Appointment. 

We will provide the private medical services on the scheduled appointment date.
We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the services is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any service that you have paid for but not received.

6.2. If you do not attend your scheduled appointment.

If you do not attend our premises to allow us to carry out the private medical services as arranged (and you do not have a good reason for this) we may charge you for the cost of the missed appointment and any other costs incurred by us as a result. If you do not reschedule your appointment we may end the contract and clause 9.2 will apply.

6.3. What will happen if you do not give required information to us.

We may need certain information from you so that we can provide the private medical services, for example, details of your medical history, copies of your medical records and details of any allergies that you may have. If so, this will have been stated when you booked your appointment. We will contact you with your appointment confirmation to ask for this information or to request that you provide your consent to the disclosure of the same. If you do not give us this information prior to your appointment, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 9.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra services that are required as a result.

7. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT

If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at clause 7.2.1 to clause 7.2.4 below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any services which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

We are under a legal duty to supply services that are in conformity with this contract. See the box below for a summary of your key legal rights in relation to the services we provide. Nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.

Summary of your key legal rights

This is a summary of your key legal rights. These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06.

The Consumer Rights Act 2015 provides that you can ask us to repeat a service we have provided  if it’s not carried out with reasonable care and skill.

11. PRICE AND PAYMENT

11.1. Where to find the price for the services.

The price of the services we provide (which includes VAT) will vary depending upon the nature of the services to be provided and will be the price indicated when you book your appointment. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the services advised to you is correct. However please see clause 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the services you ask us to provide.

11.2. We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT.

If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date of your appointment, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the services in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

11.3. What happens if we got the price wrong.

It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the services we offer may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the services’ correct price at the date that you book your appointment is less than our stated price at date on which you book the appointment, we will charge the lower amount. If the correct price at the date that of your appointment is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before proceeding to provide the services in question. If we accept your appointment and provide our services where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and not perform the services in question.

11.4. When you must pay and how you must pay.

We accept payment with cash and most credit cards. Unless we specify otherwise (for example, in respect of any aesthetic services we provide) you must pay for the services in question in full in advance of your scheduled appointment and payment will be taken when you book your appointment. If you do not pay when due or cancel any payment that is made, we will cancel your scheduled appointment and will not be obliged to provide the services in question until payment is made in full.

12. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU

12.1. We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us.

If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen.

12.2. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so.

14. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS

14.1. We may transfer this Agreement to someone else.

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.

14.2. Nobody else has any rights under this contract.

This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

14.3. If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force.

Each of the clauses of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining clauses will remain in full force and effect.

14.4. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you do not make a payment when due and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the services in question, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

14.5. Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings.

These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the services in question in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the services in question in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the services in question in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

14.6. Alternative dispute resolution.

Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider we use.
