disclaimer.

Throughout this Agreement, the words “Meghan Oakes,” “Meghan Oakes Health,” “us,” “we,”, “I” and “our,” refer to our business, Meghan Loughery and our site or any services or products, as is appropriate in the context of the use of the words. By using our site, services and products, you agree to be bound by our Disclaimer, Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Informational and Educational Purposes.

Meghan Oakes is not a physician or psychologist, and the scope of his/her services and products does not include diagnosis of specific illnesses or disorders. If I, the client, suspect I may have an ailment or illness that may require medical attention, then it is my responsibility to consult with a licensed physician immediately. Only a licensed physician can prescribe drugs. 

Any mention of drugs in the course of consultation is only for the purpose of providing a complete history of drugs that the client is taking and not for Meghan Oakes to judge the appropriateness of the medication. Any change in prescription or dosage is a decision the client makes with his or her physician.

Statements and information provided through our websites, programs, products and services is for informational and educational purposes only. You acknowledge that any information obtained is not to be substituted for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment that can be provided by you or your clients’ own Medical Provider (including doctor/physician, nurse, physician’s assistant, or any other health professional), Mental Health Provider (including psychiatrist, psychologist, therapist, counselor, or social worker), registered dietitian or licensed nutritionist, or member of the clergy.

Consult Your Physician Or Health Care Provider.

Our intent is NOT to replace any relationship that exists, or should exist, between you or your Medical Provider or Mental Health Provider. You and your clients should always seek the advice of your/their own doctor/physician, nurse practitioner, physician’s assistant, Mental Health Provider, or another health care professional regarding any questions or concerns about your/their specific health situation.  We advise you to speak with your/their own Medical Provider or Mental Health Provider before implementing any suggestions obtained through our Website, Programs, Products and Services including but not limited to exercise, lifestyle, weight loss, food, vitamins or supplements; engaging in an elimination diet, detox or cleanse; meditation or deep breathing exercises; or participating in any other aspect of a weight loss, healthy eating, exercise and/or lifestyle program.

You shall not disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking professional advice because of information you have read on this website or received from us.  You should not stop taking any medications without speaking to your Medical Provider and/or Mental Health Provider. If you have or suspect that you or they have a medical problem, you are advised to contact your/their own Medical Provider or Mental Health Provider promptly.

Our role is to support and assist you in reaching your own goals, but your success depends primarily on your own effort, motivation, commitment and follow-through. I cannot and do not guarantee that you will attain a particular result, and you accept and understand that results differ by each individual. Each individual’s health and wellness success depends on his or her background, dedication, desire, and motivation, and a whole host of additional factors. As with any health and wellness related program or service that you purchase, your results may vary, and will be based on many variables, so therefore no guarantees can be made.
