How It Works

When you book an appointment online, you will receive:

  • A confirmation email and text message the day the appointment is scheduled
  • An email and text reminder the day before your appointment (based on the contact information you provide)

What to Expect In-Person

  • Upon arrival, check in at the DLCP kiosk
  • You will be called for service shortly after check-in
  • There is a 15-minute grace period. If you arrive after that, your appointment will be cancelled
  • If your appointment is cancelled, you may reschedule or take a first-come, first-served ticket and join the regular line

Important Update for Vending Customers
