Patient Responsibilities

1. University Eye Center (UEC) patients and guests are expected to recognize and respect the rights of our patients, visitors, and staff. • Threats, violence, disrespectful communication or harassment of other patients, visitors, or of any UEC staff member, for any reason, including but not limited to an individual’s age, race, creed, color, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, military status, sex, or disability, will not be tolerated. • Requests for changes of provider based on the provider’s age, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by law, will not be honored. Requests for a change of provider based on gender will only be considered where premised on a sincerely held religious belief, or where extenuating circumstances are present. • All individuals should respect the privacy of others, and act in a manner consistent with the professional nature of the healthcare environment. • Conduct which interferes with the operation of the UEC will not be tolerated.
