Effective September 11, 2026
Agreement to these terms
By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website. LakeMed may update these terms as the site and its services change.
General information—not medical advice
Website content is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It is not a diagnosis, treatment plan, prescription, or substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional who knows your circumstances.
Using this website, reading its content, or sending a general inquiry does not by itself create a patient-provider relationship. A relationship is established only through LakeMed’s normal registration, evaluation, and acceptance processes.
Appointments, services, and communications
Descriptions of services, availability, pricing, membership options, insurance participation, and appointment times may change. A website request is not confirmed until LakeMed responds and completes any required scheduling or registration steps.
Email and ordinary website forms may not be appropriate for urgent or sensitive medical information. Use the patient portal when directed by LakeMed for secure patient communications.
Appropriate website use
You agree not to misuse the website, attempt unauthorized access, interfere with its operation, submit false or unlawful content, introduce harmful code, or use automated methods that place an unreasonable burden on the site. You are responsible for the accuracy of information you submit.
Privacy
Our Privacy & Cookie Policy explains website data practices. Our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices explains how protected health information may be used or disclosed and describes patient rights.
Ownership and outside services
Unless otherwise stated, LakeMed owns or is authorized to use the text, design, branding, and original materials on this website. You may view or print pages for personal, noncommercial use, but may not reproduce or commercially use site materials without permission.
Links and integrations operated by other organizations—including maps, social networks, analytics providers, and patient-service platforms—are governed by those organizations. LakeMed does not control their availability, content, or privacy practices.
Availability and limits
We work to keep the website accurate and available, but it is provided on an “as available” basis. To the extent permitted by law, LakeMed does not promise that every page will always be uninterrupted, current, or error-free and is not responsible for losses caused solely by reliance on general website content or by an interruption outside LakeMed’s reasonable control.
Nothing in these terms limits rights or responsibilities that cannot lawfully be limited, including obligations that apply to LakeMed as a healthcare provider.
Tennessee law
These terms are governed by applicable federal law and the laws of the State of Tennessee, without changing any rights you may have under healthcare or consumer-protection law.
