Confidence in confidentiality

The Smile Doctor takes privacy very seriously.

We respect patients needs for total confidence in their dentist and his entire team to be able reveal personal information that may be critical to treatment.

So at the practice we do everything we can to prevent your records from going outside the practice.

Staff sign a confidentiality agreement that goes beyond the time of their employment.

Staff are briefed strictly not to discuss patients personal matters outside the practice.

Computer security is of the highest standards to protect your digital records.

Any paper or “hard copy”  records are security shredded before disposal.

We take your privacy so seriously, we refuse to use HICAPS until they remove sections of their agreement that violate all our patients’ privacy, not just HICAPS users.
