Disclaimer for PCSS Clinical Guidances
The PCSS Clinical Guidances have been developed as a resource for interested physicians, but the PCSS program is only a vehicle for the sharing of knowledge and information; it is not a referral mechanism.
While it is expected that inquiries presented to mentoring physicians will be based on fact patterns related to actual cases, remarks and opinions from mentoring physicians should be understood as being general in nature and not directed at a specific patient or case.
Opinions and counsel from a mentor should not be used as a substitute for the opinion, judgment, and knowledge of the treating physician.
No physician-patient or other relationship, expressed or implied, is created between a mentoring physician and any patient by virtue of participation in the PCSS program.
