FINANCIAL AGREEMENT
Congratulations and welcome to Fdaweightloss.com, we are excited you are taking positive steps, and our commitment is in assisting you toward transforming your health with our program. We are very selective in who we decide to coach, and only accept health participants who are committed to the lifestyle changes and recommended protocols needed for health and healing.
It is illegal and highly unethical for any consultant to guarantee results for any health care condition, however, we can speak from experience, and the success rate we have witnessed has been tremendous. We are not treating your allopathic conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease or hypothyroid etc.; rather, we are supporting metabolic and functional imbalances as they are identified. We can assure you that we will do everything in our power to lead you to a favorable outcome.If monthly payments are being made and care is discontinued after your first initial paid evaluation appointment, there will be no refunds. Payments will be made until balance is paid off. Your consistency with our recommendations is very important to the success of this progra; therefore, any support within this program must be utilized within the agreed 9 weeks of inception of your financial agreement. Any communication or support not used during this time will be considered expired and invalid for use. Please note that the follow up appointments are at no cost and therefore are not included in the case fee. The ongoing support, which is at no cost to you, is designed to help and guide in the implementation of those protocols.
Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The place of arbitration shall be Phoenix, Arizona. Arizona law shall apply. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The decision of the arbitration will be legally binding. Either party may take no other method of legal action.
The appointments are either in person, via phone or telemedicine, and are not intended to treat disease, but to coach health participants back to a healthy life style. I understand that Fdaweightloss.com conducts business in a virtual space, which means we support our clients in person or telephone.
We ask you to commit to 3 month terms which include medication delivered to your door, including initial doctor consult and other fees.
