Website Terms and Conditions

If This Is an Emergency

Do not use this website. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Do not wait for a reply to a form submission. Do not drive yourself if you are having symptoms.

Accepting These Terms

By using drpatelcardiology.com, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.

This Site Is Informational

Everything on this site is general information about heart conditions, procedures, and our practice. It is not medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment recommendation, and it is not a substitute for talking with a physician who knows your history.

Medical knowledge changes. We work to keep this site accurate and current, but we make no warranty that everything on it is complete, accurate, or up to date. Do not delay seeking care, or disregard advice you have been given, because of something you read here.

Using This Site Does Not Make You a Patient

Reading this site, sending us a message, or requesting an appointment does not create a doctor-patient relationship. That relationship begins when the practice accepts you as a patient and Dr. Patel sees you.

Appointment Requests

Submitting the contact form is a request, not a booking. Our staff will contact you to schedule based on availability, and we will confirm your appointment directly.

The form is delivered to us by email and is not monitored around the clock. Do not use it for anything urgent. How we handle what you send is described in our Privacy Policy .

Limitations on Use

When using this site, you agree not to:

• Copy, modify, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the site or its content
• Remove any copyright or ownership notice
• Mirror the site or transfer its materials to another server
• Disrupt the site or attempt to gain unauthorized access to it
• Send harassing, obscene, or unlawful material through any form on the site
• Send unsolicited advertising
• Collect information about other visitors
• Infringe anyone’s intellectual property or privacy
• Use the site in a way that violates any applicable law

We may restrict access to anyone who does these things.

Intellectual Property

The text, images, layout, and design of this site belong to the practice or are used with permission, and are protected by copyright and other laws. You may read and print pages for your own personal use. Republishing any part of this site requires our written permission.

Links to Other Sites

We link to hospitals, physician directories, medical references, and mapping services. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Following a link means leaving this site and entering theirs.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the practice is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this site or your inability to use it.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for the care Dr. Patel provides to patients. That is governed by law and by the standards of medical practice, not by a website disclaimer.

Indemnification

You agree to hold the practice harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of this site or your violation of these terms.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms. Changes take effect when posted, and the date at the top of this page shows when they last changed. Continuing to use the site means you accept the current version.

If Part of This Is Unenforceable

If any provision here is found invalid or unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
