This website is owned and operated by Rachel Knight, M.D., Inc., a California professional corporation. By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. No medical advice

The content on this website is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified health care professional. Never disregard or delay seeking professional medical advice because of something you have read on this site.

2. No physician–patient relationship

Viewing this website, submitting the contact form, emailing the practice, or participating in an introductory call does not create a physician–patient relationship. A treatment relationship is established only after an initial psychiatric evaluation is scheduled and completed, and after the practice's patient agreements have been provided and signed.

3. Not for urgent or emergency matters

This website and its contact form are not monitored continuously. Do not use them to communicate urgent, emergency, or time-sensitive matters. No response is guaranteed, and submitting a form does not establish care or reserve an appointment.

4. Confidentiality of website communications

The website contact form and ordinary email are not secure or confidential channels. Please do not send detailed clinical or medical information through them. Use the secure client portal for confidential communication once you are an established patient. See the Privacy Policy for how website information is handled.

5. Who may use this site

This website is intended for adults. Psychiatric services described on this site are available only to adults located in states where Dr. Knight is licensed to practice. Accessing this website does not entitle any person to receive services, and the practice reserves the right to decline to accept any individual as a patient.

All content on this website, including text, photographs, graphics, layout, and design, is owned by Rachel Knight, M.D., Inc. or used with permission, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may view and print content for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from any part of this site without prior written permission.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

This website is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rachel Knight, M.D., Inc. disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rachel Knight, M.D., Inc., and its officers, directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, revenue, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, this website — whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, and whether or not the practice has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Nothing in these Terms limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability arising from the provision of professional medical services to an established patient.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Rachel Knight, M.D., Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of your use of this website or your violation of these Terms.

The practice may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of this website at any time without notice. These Terms may also be updated from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, and the "Last updated" date above will be revised accordingly. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this website or these Terms will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

14. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
