CONSULTATIVE SERVICE
In some cases, a licensed healthcare provider or affiliated health care provider may use the Services to provide advice or treatment to you. A licensed healthcare provider consulting with you through the Services may not have the benefit of information that would be obtained by examining you in person and observing your physical condition, in each instance. Therefore, the health care provider may not be aware of facts or information that may affect his or her opinion regarding a potential diagnosis or treatment recommendation. To reduce the risk to you of this limitation, SWEET LEAF HEALTH, LLC strongly encourages you to provide all relevant information and discuss any and all diagnosis and treatment options with a health care provider.
