Medical Disclaimer
1. Not medical advice
The information provided on this website (weightdoctor.ca) is for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and is not a substitute for professional medical advice from a qualified physician or other licensed healthcare provider.
You should not use the information on this website to diagnose or treat a health problem or disease without consulting a qualified healthcare professional. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
2. No physician-patient relationship
Accessing or using this website does not create a physician-patient relationship between you and WeightDoctor, Dr. Neel Bector, MD, or any member of the WeightDoctor clinical team.
A physician-patient relationship is only established when you have completed a medical assessment with our clinical team and have been accepted as a patient of WeightDoctor. Until that relationship is formally established, no information you provide through this website, a contact form, or any inquiry — and no information we provide in response — constitutes clinical care or medical advice specific to you.
3. Individual results vary
Any information on this website about weight loss outcomes, program results, or clinical benefits is general in nature. Individual results vary based on medical history, adherence to the program, individual biology, and other factors. WeightDoctor does not guarantee specific outcomes. Weight loss claims on this website are directional and not a promise of results for any individual patient.
4. Prescription medication
WeightDoctor is a physician-supervised clinic. Prescription medication may be prescribed to eligible patients following a medical assessment — this decision is made by the supervising physician on a case-by-case basis. Not all patients qualify for prescription support.
Information on this website about prescription weight loss medication is for general educational purposes only. It does not constitute a recommendation that any specific medication is appropriate for you. Medication decisions are made by the supervising physician based on your individual clinical picture.
5. Emergencies
This website is not monitored for urgent or emergency medical communications. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately. Do not use this website, our contact form, or email to communicate urgent health concerns.
6. Third-party content and links
This website may contain links to external websites or reference third-party research, publications, or resources. These links are provided for informational purposes only. WeightDoctor does not endorse, control, or take responsibility for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party website or resource.
References to research or clinical statistics on this website are intended to be accurate at the time of publication. Medical evidence evolves — consult a qualified healthcare provider for the most current clinical guidance on any topic.
7. Learn hub and educational content
The WeightDoctor Learn hub contains educational articles on weight management, medications, body composition, hormones, and related topics. This content is written to inform and educate — it is not a substitute for individualized medical advice. If you have questions about how any topic in our educational content applies to your specific situation, speak with your physician.
8. Supervised clinical care
All clinical care at WeightDoctor is supervised by Dr. Neel Bector, MD. The clinical team operates under his supervision and in accordance with the standards of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) and applicable Ontario health legislation.
WeightDoctor does not diagnose or treat conditions outside the scope of physician-supervised weight and metabolic care. If your assessment identifies clinical needs outside that scope, we will recommend appropriate referral.
