Your Relationship with Us

We are a technology company that makes available to individuals who register as users of the Service (“Users”) certain products and services sold or offered by MD Weight Loss or by third-party medical providers, pharmacies, or other vendors. Our Service provides access to prescription fulfillment services offered by several licensed pharmacies (the “Pharmacies”). We may also provide you with a means of connecting to one or more medical groups who provide healthcare services through the Platform (the “Medical Groups”). These medical groups employ or contract with physicians and allied health professionals who offer certain healthcare services through the Platform (“Providers”). By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that any services you receive from the Pharmacies, Medical Groups or Providers through the Platform are also subject to this Agreement, and that the Pharmacies, Medical Groups and Providers are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

 

With respect to the Pharmacies, the Medical Groups and the Providers, we act solely as a technology platform to connect you with the products and services offered by the Pharmacies, Medical Groups and Providers through the Service. We do not control or influence the practice of medicine by the Medical Groups or any Providers, each of whom is solely responsible for the medical care and treatment he or she provides to you. Medi Nutraceuticals Inc makes no representations or warranties about the suitability, reliability, timeliness or accuracy of the medical care and treatment provided by the Medical Groups or any Providers. By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that Medi Nutraceuticals Inc is not a healthcare provider and that by using the Service, you are not entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with MD Weight Loss.

 

By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that the Medical Group and/or Providers may send you messages, reports, and emails via the Service regarding your diagnosis and/or treatment. You further understand and agree that it is your sole responsibility to monitor and respond to these messages, reports, and emails and that neither Medi Nutraceuticals Inc nor the Medical Group nor any Provider will be responsible in any way and you will not hold Medi Nutraceuticals Inc, Medical Group or any Provider liable for any loss, injury, or claims of any kind resulting from your failure to read or respond to these messages or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations or instructions from the Medical Group or your Provider(s).

 

While you are not establishing a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with Medi Nutraceuticals Inc, by using the Service, you are establishing a direct customer relationship with Medi Nutraceuticals Inc to use the Platform and to purchase any non-prescription products or non-medical

services sold directly to you by Medi Nutraceuticals Inc through the Platform. In connection with such relationship, you may provide to us, or cause to be provided to us on your behalf, personal information, including health information, that is subject to use by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Please refer to the “Privacy Policy” section and the “Protected Information” section below for additional information.

 

Subscription Products

Certain products available for purchase through the Service require that you purchase the product on a subscription basis. For subscription-based products, your payment device will be automatically charged at regular intervals as described for that product during the checkout process. You may cancel a subscription at any time up to forty-eight (48) hours before the applicable monthly processing date of your subscription by emailing support@mdweightloss.com .NO REFUNDS FOR PRODUCTS THAT HAVE ALREADY SHIPPED FROM THE FULFILLMENT PHARMACIES.

 

In order to simplify the user experience on the Platform, you will only see and be required to pay a single “total” subscription price. However, if a subscription product you purchase requires a consultation with a Provider and/or includes a prescription product that you fill through one of the Pharmacies, then the total price you pay includes the amount charged by the Pharmacy for the prescription drug and the amount charged by the Medical Group for the services of the Provider, as well as the amount we charge for use of and access to the Platform. We collect the amounts charged by the Pharmacies and the Medical Groups on behalf of the Pharmacies and Medical Groups and pass the applicable amounts through to them.

 

Prescription Products

Certain products available through the Platform require a valid prescription by a licensed healthcare provider. You will not be able to obtain a prescription

product unless you have completed a consultation with one of the Providers through the Platform, the Provider has determined the prescription product is appropriate for you and the Provider has written a prescription.

 

If a Provider determines a prescription product is appropriate for you and writes you a prescription, you may fill it through one of the Pharmacies by using the Platform, or you may fill the prescription at any pharmacy of your choice as prompted during your use of the Service or by emailing support@mdweightloss.com.

Our fulfillment pharmacy information:

Medi Nutraceuticals Inc. sources its prescription medication from licensed 503a compounding pharmacies. We typically use the compounding pharmacies listed below, and the specific pharmacy we use depends on the state where the client is located. Clients also have the option to select an alternate compounding pharmacy.

If you'd like to know the specific pharmacy that will be used to fill your prescription, ask your clinician during your initial consultation or reach out to customer support by emailing support@mdweightloss.com.

 

Limited Use and Availability

Our Service is currently only available to individuals who are located in states in which we offer the Service, are at least eighteen (18) years of age or older, or at least the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence, if higher than eighteen (18), and who have accepted this Agreement.

Consent to Use of Telehealth Services

Telehealth involves the delivery of healthcare services using electronic communications, information technology or other means between a healthcare provider and a patient who are not in the same physical location. While the provision of health care services using telehealth may offer certain potential benefits, there are also potential risks associated with the use of telehealth. The telehealth services are not a substitute for in-person health care in all cases. In order to use the Service, you will be required to review and agree to an informed consent regarding the use of telehealth (the “Patient Consent”) that will be provided to you by the Medical Groups and Providers through the Platform. You agree that MD Weight Loss is a third-party beneficiary of the Patient Consent and has the right to enforce it against you.

 

In some cases, the Service may not be the most appropriate way for you to provide information to, communicate with or seek medical care and treatment from a healthcare provider. For example, certain medical conditions may require an in-person procedure or a healthcare provider other than your Provider, or your Provider may determine that your diagnosis and/or treatment requires an in-person office visit or are otherwise not appropriately addressed through use of the Service. In such a case, you may receive notification stating that you will be unable to use the Service for the particular issue you submitted and providing additional information regarding next steps.

 

ALWAYS SEEK THE ADVICE OF YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTH PROVIDER BEFORE DECIDING TO START, ALTER, OR DISCONTINUE ANY COURSE OF CLINICAL TREATMENT OR THERAPY, OR FOR ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING YOUR

MEDICAL CONDITION, YOUR DIET, OR THE USE (OR FREQUENCY) OF ANY MEDICATION OR MEDICAL DEVICE.

To the extent MD Weight Loss is deemed a “business associate” however, and solely in its role as a business associate, MD Weight Loss, may be subject to certain provisions of HIPAA with respect to “protected health information,” as defined under HIPAA, that you provide to the Medical Group (“PHI”).

Binding Arbitration / Class Waiver

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY LEGAL CLAIM, DISPUTE OR OTHER CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND MD Weight Loss OR YOU AND ANY OF THE MD Weight Loss PARTIES OR ANY MEDICAL GROUP OR PROVIDER ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO MD Weight Loss, THE PLATFORM, THE CONTENT OR THE SERVICE, OR ANY OTHER MD Weight Loss GOODS, SERVICES OR ADVERTISING, INCLUDING CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT (COLLECTIVELY “DISPUTES”), SHALL BE RESOLVED IN CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BEFORE ONE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATOR FROM THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”), RATHER THAN IN A COURT, AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA’S COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND, IF THE ARBITRATOR DEEMS THEM APPLICABLE, THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (COLLECTIVELY “RULES AND PROCEDURES”). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN.

 

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual.

 

Payment of arbitration costs will be governed by the AAA’s fee schedule, unless you are able to show that your portion will be prohibitive as compared

to litigation costs, in which case MD Weight Loss will pay as much of your arbitration costs as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation costs. MD Weight Loss also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all arbitration costs imposed by the AAA. Each party agrees to pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a governing statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid attorneys’ fees and expenses.

The arbitration shall be conducted in Gainesville, GA, except that, in the event Gainesville, GA is not within 100 miles of your residence, the arbitration may be conducted within 100 miles of your residence, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the Dispute arises from: (a) a violation of either party’s intellectual property rights in any manner; (b) any claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, unauthorized use or a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act; and/or (c) any claim for equitable relief; then you and MD Weight Loss agree that a party may seek injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a state or federal court in Atlanta, GA and both parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts in connection with such proceedings. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Disputes that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration as long as such action remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

 

ALL DISPUTES SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. NO PARTY MAY BRING ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO

ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS PROCEEDING. THE CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE JOINED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONSOLIDATED OR JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim or request for relief, then such claim or request for relief (and only that claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Atlanta, GA, subject to the parties’ respective rights to appeal the decision. All other claims or requests for relief shall be arbitrated. The parties agree that any claims or requests for relief that are severed from an arbitration may not proceed in litigation and shall be stayed until all claims between the parties remaining in arbitration are finally resolved. The parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Atlanta, GA for purposes of resolving any claims or requests for relief severed from arbitration pursuant to this paragraph.

account (if applicable), a detailed description of the Dispute, and the relief you seek. Before we commence arbitration of a Dispute against you, we will provide a written Notice of Dispute to you with a detailed description of the Dispute and the relief we seek. Any Notice of Dispute you send to us should be mailed to:

 

CO: MD Weight Loss

Dispute Notice. If we are unable to resolve a Dispute within 30 days after the applicable Notice of Dispute is received, either party may commence arbitration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if we make any future material modification to any provisions of this Agreement that govern the arbitration or resolution of Disputes, such changes will not apply to any Dispute between you and us for which either party had previously provided a written Notice of Dispute to the other in accordance with this paragraph. Further, if we make any future material changes to the provisions of this Agreement that govern the arbitration or resolution of Disputes, you may reject such changes by sending a written notice of your rejection decision to us at 4502 13th Ave Suite 218 Brooklyn, NY 11219 ATTN: Arbitration Opt-Out within 30 days of the effective date of such modifications.
