The Consultation


 

I need help. Where do I start?

Whether you are looking for help with hair loss, skin issues, or signs of photoaging, the first step before starting a treatment plan is to schedule a consultation appointment with Dr. Rawal. The consultation appointment allows Dr. Rawal to make individualized recommendations and ensure you are on the most optimal treatment course. At the beginning of your consultation appointment, we will take photos that will act as a baseline to measure progress.  Dr. Rawal will then review your medical history and perform a thorough exam, which may include a microscope exam of your scalp or Visia scan of your skin.  She will also speak with you about your goals for both the short- and longer term.  Together, you and Dr. Rawal will come up with a treatment plan that can help you achieve your hair restoration or skin rejuvenation goals within your desired time frame and budget.

You can schedule a consultation appointment in one of four ways:

-Request an appointment via our online booking tool (found on the Homepage)   

-Text us a message at (608)655-6773

-Call our office at (608)721-6132                 

-Email us at info@therawalinstitute.com

Please remember that you will be charged a non-refundable $250 consultation fee ($350 for a combination hair/skin consult) for the time spent with Dr. Rawal. This fee will be collected at the time of booking, by credit card, in order to reserve your appointment.  Your first follow-up visit, completed within 12 months of your initial appointment, is also included in this initial consultation fee, and all follow-up appointments thereafter require a $125 fee, also collected at the time of their booking. If it has been greater than 18 months since your last appointment, the appointment will need to be scheduled as a new consultation and will incur a new "initial consultation" fee as above.  


Should you need to reschedule, we require a reschedule notice greater than 24 hours prior to your appointment time.  "No-shows" and late cancellations will result in forfeiture of the booking fee for that appointment.  Additional scheduling policies may apply. 

***Please note that we DO NOT ACCEPT INSURANCE PAYMENTS. Should you desire to have your insurance involved, you will be required to complete all payments personally prior to the time of appointment/procedure, and a one-time diagnosis/procedure code will be provided to you for submission to your insurance so they can reimburse you directly.  Any additional communications in this endeavor will incur a charge of $25 per communication, whether verbal or written.*** 

Patient Portal registration and initial patient paperwork will need to be completed prior to your appointment, in order to avoid delays during your visit.  Flash and/or video photography and recordings of any kind are strictly prohibited during any part of your consultation/follow-up visits or treatment(s), and we reserve the right to deny treatment to patients who do not comply with this policy. Photographs, after-visit summaries, and educational materials for recommended treatment plans are published for your convenience and can be viewed in your Patient Portal. 

We look forward to helping you on your journey to feeling refreshed!
