This website is here to help you understand your options before you come in. It is not a substitute for being examined, and reading it does not make you our patient. Below is what that means in full.
In short: these pages help you understand your options before you come in. They are not medical advice, reading them does not make you our patient, and nothing here replaces being examined. If you have an emergency, call 911.
All health information on this website is general and for educational purposes. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for a visit, a phone consultation, or the advice of your physician or another qualified provider. No page here can account for your history, examination, imaging, or other conditions — and those determine what is right for you.
Reading this website, downloading our materials, or sending us a message does not create a doctor-patient relationship with James Lin, MD, Beth Brown, PA-C, or CPMC Care. That relationship begins when you become a patient and we evaluate you.
Do not use this website for a medical emergency. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department — including for sudden leg weakness, numbness in the groin or inner thighs, loss of bladder or bowel control, chest pain, or difficulty breathing. Do not wait for a reply from our office.
Never disregard or delay professional medical advice because of something you read here. If your provider has told you something different, follow your provider.
Descriptions of procedures, recovery, and timeframes are general and are not a promise or prediction of any particular result. Every treatment described carries risks as well as potential benefits.
We make a genuine effort to keep this site accurate and current, but medicine changes and content may become outdated or contain errors. Information is provided without warranty of any kind, express or implied.
Email and web forms are not secure. Please do not send protected health information, records, imaging, or details about your condition through this website or by email. To discuss anything clinical, call (805) 557-7050. Anything you do send this way is sent at your own risk.
Our providers are licensed in California and see patients in Thousand Oaks. Nothing here is an offer to provide care where our providers are not licensed.
We link to third-party sites for reference only. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content. A link is not an endorsement. Where we describe a device, medication, or technology, we are describing it — not recommending it.
CPMC Care, its providers, and staff are not responsible for errors or omissions in this website's content, or for results obtained from its use. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of — or inability to use — this website.
