SOCIAL MEDIA POLICY: 

My Social Media Policy describes how I conduct myself as a professional on the Internet and how clients can expect me to respond to various interactions that may occur between us on the Internet. This policy is guided by my interest in maintaining the confidentiality of my work with clients and the effectiveness of our methods of communication.

In the interest of maintaining our respective privacy, I will not accept friend or contact requests from current or former clients. In addition, if you are a client of mine, please do not use Social Networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, or this my website as a means of communicating with me as I do not monitor these sites on a regular basis and may be unaware of your attempt to contact me.

Do not use Wall postings or other means of engaging with me in public online as this may compromise your confidentiality. In addition, any form of contact with me may result in these contacts becoming a part of your legal healthcare record.

Finally, there are many Business Review Sites that invite consumers to rate providers and make comments about them. Often, these sites add businesses and healthcare professionals without their knowledge of being listed. I recommend that you remain aware that contributing to these sites may compromise your confidentiality.  Whereas I in no way wish to limit your freedom of expression on these sites, I do recommend that you employ a screen name that protects your privacy.  Moreover, should you find my listing on any of these sites please note that my listing is not a request for an endorsement, rating, or testimonial from you as my client.
