Cosmetic Surgery
Payment Policy
A deposit of 10% of the surgical fee is required to reserve a date for surgery. The balance of the surgical fee and the full facility and anesthesia fees are required two weeks prior to surgery.
The 10% scheduling deposit is refundable in full if surgery is cancelled with at least two weeks’ notice. If surgery is cancelled with less than two weeks’ notice, 50% of the scheduling deposit will be returned. If surgery is cancelled within one week of surgery, the entire deposit is nonrefundable. Any non-refundable fees may be applied to the total surgical fee if surgery is rescheduled and performed within 6 months of the cancelled date of surgery. Fees paid for non-returnable surgical implants/supplies are nonrefundable.
Revision
Policy
Every plastic surgeon will have a few patients who require revisionary surgery, or have a complication requiring additional surgery. Unfortunately, Dr. Steele cannot guarantee a perfect result. It is our policy as a courtesy to our patients not to charge a surgical fee for complications or revisions within 6 months of the original surgery date. The patient, however, is expected to pay for any necessary facility and anesthesia fees. You will be provided a full copy of our revisionary policy when you schedule surgery.
Where Dr. Steele
Operates

Dr. Steele has credentials at Baylor Surgical Hospital, Harris Southwest Hospital, Baylor Scott & White All Saints Hospital, USMD Fort Worth Hospital, Medical City Fort Worth Hospital and Surgery Center, and Harris Outpatient Surgery Centers, Park Hill and Midtown.
