Applies to: DoctorsDoctor.com (the "Site")
Operated by: DoctorsDoctor.com ("DoctorsDoctor," "we," "us")
General Information Only
The Site provides general, educational information about physician recognition and professional credentials. It is not intended as medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment guidance.
Not Medical Advice; No Doctor-Patient Relationship
DoctorsDoctor does not practice medicine and does not provide medical care. Using the Site does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and any physician, or between you and DoctorsDoctor. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
If you think you may have a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Awards and Listings Are Not Guarantees
DoctorsDoctor awards and listings are based on a structured peer-selection process and objective checks that may include review of publicly available information. Being listed or recognized:
- does not guarantee outcomes, safety, or quality of care in any individual case;
- does not mean a surgeon is "best" for every patient or condition; and
- should be considered a starting point, not the final factor in any healthcare decision.
Methodology; Public-Information Limits
We strive to describe our methodology clearly and apply it consistently, but:
- our criteria and processes may evolve over time;
- information can change after our review date; and
- some information (including certain legal matters, claims, settlements, or internal hospital actions) may be unavailable, incomplete, delayed, or not publicly accessible.
Accordingly, we cannot promise that our review captures every event or issue related to a physician's professional history.
No Pay-to-Play
DoctorsDoctor awards are not for sale. We do not offer a way to buy inclusion on an awards list. If the Site contains advertising or sponsored placements, they will be labeled and do not determine awards recognition.
Third-Party Content and Links
The Site may link to third-party websites (e.g., hospitals, medical boards, publications). We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or accuracy.
Testimonials and Endorsements
If we display testimonials, quotes, or endorsements, they represent individual experiences or opinions and may not reflect the experience of all users. If there is any material connection (e.g., a paid relationship) related to an endorsement, it should be disclosed in a clear manner.
Accuracy; No Warranties
We aim to keep information accurate and current, but the Site is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, DoctorsDoctor will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages arising out of or related to your use of the Site or reliance on any content.
Corrections
