The information and services obtained from ESCA and its volunteers should not be a substitute for the advice and regular care of a doctor or other health care professional.
While ESCA maintains a list of doctors and other medical professionals who speak English, this should not be considered an endorsement of any particular person on the list.
And while ESCA maintains a policy of confidentiality, it should be understood that information about a person contacting ESCA may be shared among Committee Members, in order to best meet that person’s needs.
