Safety & Risks Frequently Asked Questions
How do you ensure patient safety?
Clinical care begins with an individual assessment. Your provider reviews relevant health history, medications, and testing needs, and discusses the proposed plan with you.
Are treatments monitored by medical providers?
Clinical treatment plans include provider oversight and follow-up appropriate to the service. Ask your care team who will manage your treatment and how to reach them.
What happens if I experience side effects?
Contact your treating team promptly about side effects or concerns. For severe symptoms or a medical emergency, call 911 rather than waiting for a website or email response.
What medical screening is required before treatment?
Before starting any therapy, patients complete a medical history review, physical assessment when needed, and appropriate laboratory testing. This screening helps identify potential risks and contraindications.
Are treatments personalized for each patient?
Yes, all treatment plans are individualized based on health history, diagnostic results, symptoms, and personal goals. Personalization helps improve safety and treatment effectiveness.
