Guidelines for Doctors and Clinics

At FertilityIQ by Inflection, we are dedicated to offering accurate, unbiased, and comprehensive information to anyone seeking fertility care. To maintain the integrity and reliability of our reviews, we ask all healthcare providers to follow these ethical guidelines:

1. Encourage all patients to provide reviews.
   
   We encourage doctors and clinics to invite all patients, not just those who are pregnant, to leave reviews. For example, you can place a sign in your waiting room or send periodic emails to your entire patient population, inviting them to share their feedback.

2. Respect the privacy of the patient.
   
   Doctors and clinics should never contact a patient about their review. Once a review is posted, do not ask the patient to remove or change it. Bullying, intimidating, or threatening to withdraw treatment due to a patient's review is strictly prohibited.

3. Do not provide incentives in exchange for reviews.
   
   Reviews written in exchange for financial compensation, gifts, entry into clinic-sponsored contests, or any other form of monetary value are not allowed.

4. Only authentic reviews are allowed.
   
   We strictly prohibit fake reviews, whether positive or negative. Reviews must be written by patients who have received treatment at the clinic and must accurately reflect their genuine experiences.

*We utilize a combination of automated systems and human oversight to detect and remove inauthentic reviews.

A federal rule banning fake online reviews is now in effect.

The rule bans reviews and testimonials attributed to people who don’t exist or are generated by artificial intelligence, people who don’t have experience with the business or product/services, or misrepresent their experience.

It also bans businesses from creating or selling reviews or testimonials. Businesses that knowingly buy fake reviews, procure them from company insiders or disseminate fake reviews will be penalized. It also prohibits businesses from using “unfounded or groundless legal threats, physical threats, intimidation, or certain false public accusations to prevent or remove a negative consumer review."

Please note: Reviews that do not meet our guidelines may be removed or rejected without notice. For more details, please see our terms & conditions.
