Patient Privacy Policy
We uphold our Patient’s privacy with the utmost importance and are compliant with all of the HIPPA Guidelines. Our practice maintains the privacy of your health information as required by law.
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
We also have a policy within our practice prohibiting the use of cells phones in the consultation rooms, operatories, and recovery rooms.
Our company may update its Privacy Policy from time to time. When we change the policy in a material way, a notice will be posted on our website along with the updated Privacy Policy.
