      \n

      Appointments are scheduled two times a day on days that vary by semester, and patients are asked to be available for two to three hours for each appointment. The length of time is due to the thoroughness of care and so students can be evaluated on the procedures they perform. Patients may require more than one appointment to complete treatment.<\/p>\n
