Information submitted through a general website form or ordinary email should not be considered a substitute for information submitted through a designated client intake or health information system.
Please do not use general website forms for urgent medical concerns or emergencies.
The privacy protections applicable to particular health information may vary depending upon the service, the manner in which information is collected, and applicable law. Nothing in this Privacy Policy should be interpreted as a representation that every communication or piece of information submitted through this website is protected under HIPAA.

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.
However, no website, electronic transmission, email system, or online storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You provide information electronically with this understanding.
