Please refer to the Private Hospitals and Medical Clinics Advertising Guidelines 7A (May 1997, UPdated 22 Oct 1998), Section 3.2. Gerald Tan and DMoz bear no responsibility for your actions. By submitting your site, you are agreeing to abide by the guidelines and take responsibility for any consequences.
The following is extracted from SMA Private Practice Handbook (Cheong Pak Yean, SMA): "Medical clinics can setup its own Internet homepage, but the doctors should not use the Internet to correspond or to provide personal information."
I would strongly discourage the use of promotional, comparative terms and patient testimonials (Section 2). Name, address, telephone numbers, business hours, services provided, registered medical qualifications and broad specialities are permitted.
Publishers of Internet Directories should comply with section 3.2.1. We strive to provide equal opportunities for all healthcare establishments to be listed. |
