Effective Date: January 2026
Welcome to the website of Homeport Neurosurgery & Spine (“Practice,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree with these terms, please discontinue use of this website.
1. General Information Only
The information provided on this website is intended for general educational and informational purposes only. Content on this website should not be considered medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment and should not be used as a substitute for consultation with a qualified healthcare professional.
Medical information changes over time, and while we strive to provide accurate and current information, we do not guarantee that all information on this website is complete, accurate, or up to date.
2. No Physician-Patient Relationship
Use of this website, including submitting an appointment request, contact form, or other electronic communication, does not establish a physician-patient relationship between you and Homeport Neurosurgery or any of its physicians, advanced practice providers, employees, or affiliates.
A physician-patient relationship is established only after the Practice has formally accepted you as a patient and the appropriate clinical evaluation and documentation have occurred.
3. Medical Emergencies
This website is not intended for emergency medical situations and should not be used to request emergency medical assistance.
If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or seek immediate care at the nearest emergency department.
Do not use website forms, email, social media, or other non-emergency communication methods to report urgent or life-threatening symptoms.
4. Appointments and Website Requests
Any appointment request submitted through this website is considered a request only and does not constitute a confirmed appointment until you receive confirmation from our office.
Submission of information through the website does not guarantee that the Practice will be able to provide treatment or accept you as a patient.
If you need to cancel, reschedule, or confirm an appointment, please contact our office according to the instructions provided by the Practice.
5. Electronic Communications
Electronic communications may not always be reviewed immediately. You should not use general website contact forms, standard email, or social media to communicate urgent medical concerns or sensitive medical information unless specifically instructed to do so by the Practice.
When available, patients should use the Practice's designated secure patient portal for communications involving protected health information.
6. Privacy and Protected Health Information
We respect the privacy of our patients and website visitors. Information regarding our website privacy practices is available in our Privacy Policy.
Our handling of protected health information is governed by applicable federal and state law and our Notice of Privacy Practices, as applicable.
Please be aware that submitting information through a general website form or standard email may not provide the same level of security as communication through a designated secure patient portal.
7. Website Content
Information regarding medical conditions, procedures, treatments, technologies, physicians, providers, or services is provided for general informational purposes. Individual results and treatment recommendations vary depending on each patient's medical history, diagnosis, examination, imaging, testing, and other clinical factors.
Descriptions of particular procedures or treatments do not mean that those procedures or treatments are appropriate for every patient.
8. No Guarantee of Results
Testimonials, patient experiences, educational materials, descriptions of procedures, and other information presented on this website should not be interpreted as a promise or guarantee of a particular medical or surgical outcome.
Every patient's condition and response to treatment are different. Past outcomes do not guarantee future results.
9. Insurance and Payment Information
Any information regarding insurance participation, benefits, coverage, costs, or payment provided through this website is for general informational purposes only.
Insurance coverage and patient financial responsibility vary by plan and individual circumstances. Patients are responsible for confirming their benefits and coverage with their insurance carrier when appropriate.
10. Third-Party Websites
This website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties. These links are provided for convenience and informational purposes only.
Homeport Neurosurgery does not control and is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, security, availability, or accuracy of third-party websites. The inclusion of a link does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of the third party or its products or services.
