I am sorry if we did not offer a shuttle ride at any point during the day. We have a part time and full time shuttle driver as well as a partnership with Lyft to get our customers to and from where ever they need to go throughout the day. We are usually very diligent about asking each customer if they need a ride at the time of their appointment as well as an option when scheduling online for a shuttle. We will continue to make sure we offer it to everyone.
