Transparency

Testimonials Policy

Patient stories can be powerful — and misleading. This policy explains how testimonials are handled here.

Last medically reviewed: June 1, 2026 · Educational content only — not medical advice.

Current status

No patient testimonials are currently published on this site. When testimonials are added in the future, they will follow the rules below.

Rules for any future testimonial

  • Written, informed consent is required from the patient.
  • The patient's clinical situation and time since treatment are stated.
  • Individual results are labeled as such — a testimonial is not evidence of typical outcomes.
  • A "results vary" disclosure appears with every testimonial.
  • No compensation is given in exchange for a positive story.
  • No before/after photos are staged, retouched, or reused across patients.

What we do not publish

  • Fabricated or composite patient stories
  • Stock imagery presented as a real patient
  • Testimonials that imply cure, guaranteed remission, or universal weight loss
  • Testimonials from patients treated by non-affiliated physicians presented as ours

Reporting a concern

If any published testimonial appears misleading, contact the editorial team and we will review and, if warranted, remove it.
