Disclaimer
No Medical Advice – Informational Purposes Only:
SurgeryTrips is not a healthcare provider. The content presented on our Site (including text, graphics, images, and information provided by Clinics) is for general informational purposes only. It is not intended to be, nor should it be taken as, medical advice. Nothing on SurgeryTrips is a substitute for consultation, diagnosis, and treatment by a qualified health professional. Always seek the advice of a licensed doctor or other qualified medical provider regarding any medical condition or treatment options. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on our Site.
No Doctor-Patient Relationship:
Your use of SurgeryTrips or any communication with a Clinic through our platform does not establish a doctor-patient relationship between you and SurgeryTrips or between you and any Clinic until you formally engage with that Clinic. SurgeryTrips serves only to facilitate introductions. We do not provide medical evaluations, opinions, or treatments. Any advice or information you receive from a Clinic is strictly between you and that Clinic. SurgeryTrips cannot and does not provide medical follow-up or emergency assistance. If you have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately.
Information Accuracy and No Guarantee:
We strive to ensure that the information on SurgeryTrips is accurate and up-to-date. However, we cannot guarantee the completeness, reliability, or accuracy of any information provided on our Site. Much of the content (such as treatment descriptions, pricing, photos, surgeon credentials, and availability of procedures) is provided by the Clinics or derived from their submissions. SurgeryTrips makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the accuracy, quality, or suitability of any information or services offered by Clinics. Prices, reviews, and other details can change and may vary based on individual circumstances. Any reliance you place on information from our Site is at your own risk. We encourage you to double-check critical information (such as pricing, what’s included in a treatment package, the credentials of a surgeon, or the expected recovery time) directly with the Clinic before making any decisions.
No Endorsement of Clinics or Procedures:
Listing a Clinic or describing a procedure on SurgeryTrips does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by SurgeryTrips. We do not rank or rate Clinics beyond providing information, nor do we vouch for the quality of their services. It is your responsibility to evaluate a Clinic’s suitability for your needs. This includes consulting reviews from multiple sources, checking a surgeon’s qualifications, and possibly seeking advice from your local healthcare providers. SurgeryTrips may highlight certain Clinics (for example, based on a Clinic’s popularity or feedback), but such highlighting is for convenience and does not imply that those Clinics are safer or better than others.
Not Responsible for Third-Party Content or Websites:
Our platform may include content provided by third parties (e.g., Clinics or possibly other users). We are not responsible for opinions, advice, statements, or representations made by third parties on our Site. Any testimonials or reviews appearing on SurgeryTrips are individual experiences and may not reflect typical results; results vary from person to person. Additionally, our Site may contain links to external websites (such as a Clinic’s own site or medical articles). We include these for informational value or convenience, but we have no control over the content or practices of those external sites. We accept no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any external websites linked from SurgeryTrips, and visiting those sites is at your own discretion. Be sure to review the terms and policies of any site you visit outside of SurgeryTrips.
No Liability for Medical Outcomes or Travel:
Choosing to undergo a medical or dental procedure, especially abroad, involves inherent risks. SurgeryTrips does not assume any liability for any aspect of your medical treatment or travel. Any arrangement for care you make with a Clinic is strictly between you and that Clinic. We do not guarantee that any surgery or treatment will achieve your desired outcome or be free of complications. All medical procedures carry risks (such as infection, unsatisfactory results, complications requiring revision surgery, etc.). Likewise, traveling to another country for treatment involves additional considerations and risks, including but not limited to travel delays, differences in medical standards, and language barriers. You assume full responsibility for the decisions you make before, during, and after engaging a Clinic through our platform. We strongly recommend obtaining comprehensive travel and health insurance, understanding the terms of care provided by the Clinic (including any revision surgery policies), and if possible, having a local doctor’s support when you return home.
Images and Testimonials:
Any before-and-after photos or patient testimonials on our Site are provided by Clinics (with the consent of those individuals) or are for illustration. Individual results will vary. These images are not guarantees of outcome; they are examples of what has been achieved in specific cases. There is no certainty that your results will look like those depicted. SurgeryTrips is not responsible for the authenticity of photos provided by Clinics, though we ask Clinics to ensure they are genuine and representative. If you suspect any photo or testimonial is misleading, please inform us.
Travel and Visa:
It is your responsibility to ensure you meet travel requirements for the country where the Clinic is located. SurgeryTrips does not handle travel arrangements. Check if you need a visa, ensure your passport is valid, and consult travel advisories for your destination. We disclaim liability for any travel-related issues (missed flights, denied entry, etc.).
Limitation of Liability (Summary):
To reiterate from our Terms of Service, SurgeryTrips shall not be liable for any direct or indirect damages arising from your use of our Site or from any contact or agreement between you and a Clinic. This includes, without limitation, any injury, complication, or unsatisfactory outcome from a medical procedure, any miscommunication between you and a Clinic, or any costs or losses (financial or otherwise) you incur. SurgeryTrips is also not liable for errors on our Site, such as outdated information or temporary unavailability of the platform. Our service is provided “as is” without warranties. Users should use their own judgment and are advised to consult professionals as needed. If you have a dispute with a Clinic or experience an adverse event, you must address it with the Clinic directly. We will assist in communication if possible, but we are not a party to any contract you enter into with a Clinic and cannot provide legal remedy or compensation.
Indemnification Reminder:
By using SurgeryTrips, you agree that SurgeryTrips will not be held responsible for any claims or damages arising from your use of the Site or from any dealings between you and Clinics. You agree to indemnify SurgeryTrips for any claims resulting from your breach of our Terms or misuse of our Site. (This is fully detailed in the Terms of Service above.)
No Guarantee of Service Availability:
While we aim to provide the platform continuously, SurgeryTrips does not guarantee that the Site will be available at all times or that it will operate error-free. Maintenance, technical issues, or factors beyond our control (like internet outages) may result in temporary service disruptions. We will not be liable for any inconvenience or loss due to such downtime.
Jurisdictional Disclaimer:
SurgeryTrips operates under Danish law. We make no representation that the content on our Site is appropriate or available for use in other locations. Users who access our Site from outside Denmark do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws are applicable.
