Privacy Policy
Effective: July 1, 2026
Your trust and privacy are paramount to us as we strive to provide exceptional care. This privacy policy is designed to inform you about how we handle personal information collected through our website:
- The kinds of personal information we collect from you via the website, its intended uses, and potential sharing
- Steps you can take to verify and update your information
- Our commitment to securing your information
- How you can manage your data and communication preferences with us.
Collecting, Using, and Sharing Your Information
We collect information that you choose to provide to us through emails or direct contact. We never sell your information. We share it outside our practice only when necessary to deliver services you’ve requested – for example, with the providers who run our website and scheduling tools – or as required by law.
We use your information primarily to respond to your inquiries and fulfill your requests, ensuring you receive the best possible care.
With your consent, we may occasionally inform you about our special offers, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.
Your Information: Your Choices
You have the freedom to control your information and how we interact with you: request details of the information we hold about you, update any incorrect information, ask us to remove your personal data, discuss any concerns regarding our use of your information. To exercise any of these choices, contact us using the information in the Contact section below.
Our Approach to Your Data Security
Information you send through our website forms is transmitted over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Even so, please keep detailed medical history for a phone call or your patient portal – we’ll gather it securely when we speak with you.
Cookies and Website Analytics
We use a small number of essential cookies to make this site work – for example, to remember choices you make while using it. Essential cookies don’t track you for marketing. This website may also use Google Analytics, a service of Google LLC, to understand how visitors use the site – pages visited, time on page, the type of device and browser used, and approximate (city-level) location. Analytics data is processed by Google on our behalf (see Google’s privacy policy). Website analytics is never connected to your patient or medical records, and we do not sell personal information collected through this website.
If a cookie consent banner appears when you first visit this site, optional analytics is off by default: it loads only if you choose “Accept,” and nothing loads if you choose “Decline.” You can change your choice at any time by clearing this site’s cookies in your browser – the banner will ask again on your next visit. You can also limit or block cookies at any time through your browser’s settings and tracking-protection features, or by installing Google’s Analytics opt-out add-on.
Navigating External Links
Our website may link to other useful resources, but please note that we do not oversee their privacy practices. We encourage you to review their privacy statements independently.
