We look forward to and appreciate your comments and stories on our Middletown Medical social media network pages. To ensure that all privacy laws are followed, it is important that our official comment policy is used by all users as a guide for online posts, comments and discussions.
Patient Privacy
At Middletown Medical, we take our responsibility to protect our patients’ confidential information very seriously. In order to maintain patient privacy, we can’t respond to every comment. In particular, we can’t respond or comment directly in any detail with respect to your confidential health information protected under HIPAA.
We encourage open discussions and look forward to any comments, stories and experiences you want to share. However, this is a public website, and you should therefore not share any personal medical information which you wish to be held confidential.
If you would like a Middletown Medical physician or staff member to respond or comment on specifics related to your consultations, condition, treatment or recovery, please call (845) 342-4774.
