It applies to this website only. How we use and protect your medical information as a patient is described in our Notice of Privacy Practices (PDF).

Information We Collect

You can browse this website without telling us who you are. We collect personal information only when you choose to give it to us, for example when you call us, send us an email, complete a feedback form, or download our new patient forms. This may include your name, phone number, email address and the message you send.

Like most websites, our server and analytics tools automatically record technical information such as your browser type, device, the pages you visit and the date and time of your visit. This information does not identify you personally.

How We Use Your Information

  • To answer your questions and schedule appointments.
  • To respond to feedback about your visit.
  • To keep the website secure and working properly.
  • To understand which pages are useful so we can improve the website.

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.

Health information you give us as a patient is protected under HIPAA and handled as described in our Notice of Privacy Practices.
