Appointments
-
Lucy works with us on Mondays and Fridays.
-
Lucy's therapy wait list is estimated to be around 3 to 6 months. This is only a rough estimate, as our waitlists can be quite fluid, and sometimes there is movement, which means we might have unexpected appointments that pop up earlier than this.
-
While you are waiting, we encourage you to ask us to put you on Lucy's 'cancellation list' so we can contact you if there are any cancelled appointments we need to fill. This can help us get you into the earliest possible appointment.
