Terms of Use

We Care About Your Safety and Privacy – We Want You to Understand the Terms of Use of Our Website and Email Communication

As with most physician or health related websites, this site is intended to provide general information and education, but should not be construed as specific medical advice, which can really only be provided after medical staff have met with you in person. We do not divulge personal or health information of individuals to third parties without consent, and we take steps to insure health information remains confidential. However. As most of us know, the security of email communication cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, when you access the information on our site, or communicate with us via our contact forms or email, you must be aware of, and agree to, the following terms and conditions, which may be revised by us from time to time.

1. Do NOT use the Website for medical emergencies. If you have a medical emergency, call a physician or qualified healthcare provider, or CALL 911 immediately. Under no circumstances should you attempt self-treatment based on anything you have seen or read on the Website.

2.The information provided on the Website is for informational purposes only and is not professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or care, nor is it intended as such. Specific questions regarding your or someone else’s health care should be addressed in person with a physician. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on this Website. Always consult with your physician or other qualified healthcare provider before embarking on a new treatment, diet, or fitness program. Information obtained on the Website is not exhaustive and does not cover all diseases, ailments, physical conditions, or their treatment.

3. A physician -Patient relationship requires that you have had a consultation with the doctor such that the specifics of your health have been discussed, and usually an examination is also necessary. Accessing the general information on our website, requesting an appointment online, or submitting an online inquiry for information does not establish a doctor-patient relationship.

4. While many products and brands may be mentioned and discussed on the site, the information provided is meant to be generally applicable to the broader class to which that brand or product belongs. Dr. Weinberg and the other staff at MCSC do not endorse any specific brand of products or services.

5. Our Website does allow you to communicate with us by email, and request appointments online. Your email inquires, and communications sent by Dr. Weinberg and our other staff members to you via email or via this Website, or via any of the social media platforms used by our clinic, including facebook, twitter, or google plus, may not be secure and may be accessible by third parties. Any use or disclosure of personal information provided by you shall be in accordance with our privacy policy. While our staff may respond to email or online inquires by providing educational information on health care topics, that is intended to be general, we are not able to address specific medical concerns or provide medical advice specific to a given individual’s medical situation through online or email communication. Specific medical advice should always be sought in person from either our doctors or medical staff , or with another appropriately qualified medical practitioner.

6. While we endeavor to update our website information regularly, and to provide information that is correct, accurate, current and timely, both human error, and computer or other technical errors can happen.
