The Fertility Center of Las Vegas (FCLV) supports and encourages the use of social media.

We welcome and invite you to interact with us in the world of social media on current and future FCLV sites – including but not limited to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, blogs, and online story-sharing forums – and look forward to any comments, stories and experiences you would like to share.

Below are the terms and conditions of using FCLV’s social media websites. BY POSTING ON ANY FCLV SOCIAL MEDIA SITE, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS. The terms and conditions are subject to change without notice.

Please be aware that once you post something online, there’s the potential for thousands of people to read your words, even years from now. As a result, we suggest that you exercise caution when posting information on any of our social media sites and that you not disclose personal identifiable information like your location, medical record number, financial information, etc.

FCLV makes a reasonable effort to monitor participation to ensure that you stay on topic. Please remember that information posted on any of FCLV’s social media platforms shouldn’t be considered medical advice and shouldn’t replace a consultation with a health care professional. If you have a medical emergency, call 911. If you have medically-related questions regarding your health, please call your provider or physician.

While FCLV makes reasonable efforts to monitor and/or moderate content posted on its social media platforms, we do not moderate all comments and cannot always respond in a timely manner to online requests for information. Please know we cannot respond to comments that deal with individual medical cases and issues.

Our goal is to provide only the best experience for our visitors, but understand that in the real world misunderstandings do happen. Complaints or issues posted on FCLV social media sites will be handled as best we can via a public and electronic medium, which is often not the best avenue for resolution. If you would like the fastest, most direct method of reaching us and resolving your issues, please call 1.702.254.1777.
