In offering these terms to Users, SimplyDoc does not enter into an attorney-client relationship with Users, or with anyone else, nor does it offer anyone legal advice. In particular, the fact SimplyDoc is available to Users does not mean that SimplyDoc asserts that any User may lawfully use it in the Users’ jurisdiction or any other jurisdiction for any purpose. Users choice to access SimplyDoc is at Users own initiative and Users own risk.

B. SIMPLYDOC DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL, HEALTH OR HEALTHCARE ADVICE
SimplyDoc is neither a physician nor a psychologist nor a health care provider of any other kind.

SimplyDoc is solely the Site by which consumers and healthcare providers can communicate with each other.

Providers with whom Users communicate on SimplyDoc are independent health care professionals, not employees or agents of SimplyDoc, and are solely responsible for the services they provide. SimplyDoc is not in any way a partner of any provider, nor a member of any provider’s group, nor in practice nor in business with any provider. SimplyDoc has no power to hire providers. SimplyDoc may terminate any agreement it has with any provider, but otherwise has no authority to discipline, fire or terminate providers.
