Please read these Terms of Service (“Terms”, “Terms of Service”) carefully before using the gpwiki.com website (the “Service”) operated by GP Wiki (“us”, “we”, or “our”).

Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users and others who access or use the Service.

By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms then you may silently and politely close all open windows to GPWiki.com now.

Accounts

When you create an account with us, you must provide us information that is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of the Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your account on our Service.

You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the Service and for any activities or actions under your password, whether your password is with our Service or a third-party service.

You agree not to disclose your password to any third party. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.

Content and Fact Checking

GP Wiki strives to publish top quality content, but we cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the content that is published. If you have a medical concern, you should get in touch with your doctor as soon as possible.

Some of the content curated here are from our personal collection and they should be treated like a personal collection. Please do not extract them and share or save it in any way or form. We will remove you from our site and if you persist, we will take legal actions against you.

If you are a doctor reading the material on this website, you must do your own due diligence to do your own fact checking as per your evidence based medicine training in your medical school. We strive to provide the most useful information here, but at the rate that medicine is moving, all the information here might be outdated in no time. After you have done your own due diligence, and you find that you have something more updated than what we have, please please join our editorial team, we will be forever grateful to you. Or if you are shy, you can pass us the information secretly 🙂

Access­ing, read­ing or oth­er­wise using the Site does not cre­ate a physician-patient rela­tion­ship between you and the authors. Pro­vid­ing per­sonal or med­ical infor­ma­tion to the authors does not cre­ate a physician-patient rela­tion­ship between you and the authors.

You hereby agree that you shall not make any med­ical or health-related deci­sion based in whole or in part on any­thing con­tained in the Site.  You should not rely on any infor­ma­tion con­tained in the Site and related mate­ri­als in mak­ing med­ical, health-related or other deci­sions.  You should con­sult a licensed physi­cian or appropriately-credentialed health care worker in your com­mu­nity in all mat­ters relat­ing to your health.
