Privacy Policy

Information Collection

Axios Medical Group ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website at axiostms.com. We collect information that you voluntarily provide through our general inquiry form, including your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message. We also automatically collect certain technical information such as your browser type, device information, and pages visited through cookies and analytics tools.

Form Submissions

The general inquiry form on our Contact page is designed for general inquiries and appointment requests only. We explicitly ask that you do not include sensitive medical information, diagnoses, medication lists, insurance numbers, Social Security numbers, or detailed health history in this form. This website and its general inquiry form are not a HIPAA-compliant submission method. Protected health information should only be shared through our secure patient portal or directly with our clinical staff during your appointment.

Cookies and Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience and analyze website traffic. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, but some features of the website may not function properly without them. We may use third-party analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our site.

Third-Party Services

Our website links to and embeds content from third-party services, including:

• Patient Fusion: Our patient portal, hosted by a third-party provider. When you access the portal, you are subject to their privacy practices.
• YouTube: Educational videos embedded on our site are hosted by YouTube. YouTube may set cookies and collect data when you view embedded videos.
• Adobe Sign: Our intake and membership application forms are hosted through Adobe Sign. Information submitted through these forms is governed by Adobe's privacy practices.

External Portals and Links

Our website contains links to external websites and portals, including the Patient Fusion patient portal, media publications, and other resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

Contact Communications

When you submit our general inquiry form, you consent to being contacted by Axios Medical Group regarding your inquiry. If you provide a phone number and select text as your preferred contact method, message and data rates may apply. Consent to be contacted is not a condition of receiving care.

Data Security Limitations

We take reasonable measures to protect the information collected through this website. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. This website is not a HIPAA-compliant platform, and sensitive medical information should not be transmitted through the general inquiry form or any non-secure channel on this site.

Medical Disclaimer

The information provided on this website is for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on this website.

Emergency Disclaimer

This website is not monitored for emergencies. If you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, call 911 or visit the nearest emergency room immediately. Do not use the contact form, patient portal messaging, or email for urgent or emergency concerns.

No Physician-Patient Relationship

Browsing this website, completing the general inquiry form, or communicating with our office through this website does not create a physician-patient relationship. A physician-patient relationship is only established after you have completed the required intake process and attended an appointment with our provider.

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
