Clinic-related inquiries, appointment requests, treatment questions, or patient care matters should be directed to the official clinic website or the appropriate clinic contact channel.

Visitors should not submit personal medical information through this website. Submitting a contact form does not create a doctor-patient relationship and does not guarantee a response.

4. Analytics and Cookies

This website uses Google Analytics 4 to understand website traffic, visitor behavior, and website performance. Google Analytics loads automatically on the public production website and uses cookies and similar technologies to measure visits and interactions.

Google Analytics may collect technical information such as pages visited, device type, browser type, approximate location, and referral source. Reports are used to improve the website. Contact-form names, email addresses, message content, and medical information are not intentionally sent to Google Analytics. Advertising personalization and Google Signals are disabled in this website's tracking configuration.

You can restrict or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking analytics does not prevent you from accessing this website. Google also provides a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on for supported browsers. Essential hosting and security technologies operate separately from analytics.

Google processes analytics data under its own privacy policies, which may involve processing outside your country. Learn more at How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
