Exchange & Return Policy
At medelita, if something isn’t right – we’ll fix it. Need a different size? No problem. Need a measuring tape? We’ll send you one. Fabric swatches? Just ask. Want to return something? We’ll help make it easy. We call it our Professional Courtesy Guaranteetm. Why? Because we, too, come from medical backgrounds – where high standards and exceptional care are not only valued, but required.
We politely ask the following if you’d like to exchange or return an item:
- We prefer that all original tags are still attached.
- Fill out the form that was included with your order. Follow instructions for exchange and/or return.
- If you still have the original bags – please place the garments inside these bags for return.
- Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on embroidered items with professional titles.
- We prefer that items are exchanged or returned within 30 days of receipt.
- Original shipping and handling charges are not refundable.
- We’re happy to provide personalized attention to each order – individual or group. Email us at questions@medelita.com or exchanges@medelita.com.
Exchange Detail
We truly want you to obtain the right size and fit. It’s a fundamental value of our company – true fit and comfort for all women in healthcare. So if you need a different size or style, just send us an email at exchanges@medelita.com. We’ll be more than happy to email you a UPS return label for your exchange, if you simply tell us the reason(s) for your exchange. Be detailed or be brief – it’s up to you.
In summary, if you’ve decided to exchange an item, you will only pay the original shipping and handling charges. We’ll pay for your exchange items to come back to us (via UPS), and we’ll pick up the cost to send out the new items. Not a problem. But send us an email, first, to get the process started.
Returns Detail
If for any reason you are not happy with an item, please return it within 30 days for a refund. We will credit your original payment method, excluding original shipping & handling costs. If we made an error on your order or there is a sewing problem or quality issue, please call us at 877.987.7979. Please allow 2-3 weeks for your return to be processed.
We’re happy to send you a prepaid mailing label for your return. We politely ask that in order to receive a prepaid mailing label, that you first send us an email at returns@medelita.com explaining the reason for your return.
