4. Services provided by Partner Prescribers and Partner Contributors

          Consultations with Partner Prescribers

  1. When you undertake a consultation with a Partner Prescriber, you enter into a clinical treatment relationship with that Partner Prescriber. We are not liable for services (including the provision of medical advice and the prescribing of medicines) provided as part of that relationship. 
  2. Partner Prescribers operate within the protocols and processes set by the Pharmacy, however they also have clinical independence and are responsible for the healthcare services they provide to you, including compliance with standards of care and guidance issued by their professional regulator, record keeping and other professional obligations, as well as compliance with applicable law (including privacy laws). They have the same obligations to you as if they were consulting you in person.
  3. You acknowledge that the Services do not include general medical advice from the Partner Prescribers and instead only contemplate an assessment of your suitability for the Juniper Weight Reset Programme, as well as medical advice and the issuing of prescriptions in connection with the Condition. Accordingly, you acknowledge that a Partner Prescriber with whom you enter a treatment relationship does not replace the role of a general medical practitioner outside the Platforms.
  4. We do not guarantee that you will be able to consult with a particular Partner Prescriber or engage with a particular Partner Contributor. You acknowledge that a Partner Prescriber may, in exercising their clinical judgement, refuse to prescribe medication to you, issue you a repeat prescription and/or provide any other services or referrals requested by you at their absolute discretion. 
  5. We do not guarantee that a consultation with a Partner Prescriber is suitable for you or is the appropriate course of treatment for your particular health condition. The Partner Prescriber with whom you consult will be solely responsible for determining:

    i. whether or not a consultation through the Platforms is clinically appropriate for you;

    ii. whether or not to provide the medical and/or health services you request; and

    iii. what health services are required (if any).
  6. We take no responsibility and make no warranties, express or implied, in relation to the content of any consultation between you and a Partner Prescriber (including any medical advice provided, prescriptions given and/or medicine supplied by a Partner Prescriber). You and the Partner Prescriber are responsible for the conduct of each consultation and all information or communications made.

    Prescriptions issued by Partner Prescribers
  7. A Partner Prescriber may issue a prescription for a particular medicine and with a particular number of repeats if they consider it to be clinically appropriate. You acknowledge and agree that:
    i . the decision to issue a prescription (including for “off label use”) is a clinical decision made at the discretion of the Partner Prescriber and by accepting the treatment you are providing your informed consent; and

    ii. the number of repeats to include with a prescription is similarly subject to the clinical discretion of the Partner Prescriber who may take into account all relevant circumstances, including their capacity to supervise your treatment with the prescribed medicine where relevant.
  8. If a Partner Prescriber prescribes you a medicine for “off label use”, you acknowledge that the prescribed use of that medicine is not listed as one of the indications for use by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
  9. You agree that the fact that a Partner Prescriber prescribes you a particular medicine does not constitute a representation that that medicine is available for dispensing (whether from the Pharmacy or otherwise). We take no responsibility and make no warranties, express or implied, about the available supply, or ongoing availability of supply, of any medicine prescribed by a Partner Prescriber in advance of the dispensing of that medicine by the Pharmacy.

    Services provided by Partner Contributors
  10. Certain Partner Contributors may provide medical advice (doctors, nurses, pharmacists), dietary advice (dieticians, nutritionists) and general health and exercise advice (health coaches, personal trainers) within their scope of practice. The Partner Contributors have clinical independence and are responsible for the healthcare services they provide to you, including compliance with standards of care and guidance issued by their professional regulator, record keeping and other professional obligations, as well as compliance with applicable law (including privacy laws). They have the same obligations to you as if they were consulting you in person. You acknowledge that this advice is only provided in connection with the Condition.
  11. You and the relevant Partner Contributor are responsible for all information or communications made in connection with any medical advice.

  13. You may choose whether or not to join the Facebook Community as well as the information you wish to share.

    ii. you agree to comply with Facebook’s terms and policies, as available on its website from time-to-time;

    iii. you will not suggest or in any way give the impression that you have any commercial relationship with us, or that you are our employee or agent, or that we have endorsed any contribution you make in the Facebook Community;

    v. any content our Partner Contributors provide is for educational and general interest only, and is not intended to be relied upon as advice;

You agree to provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information to Partner Prescribers and Partner Contributors (and to correct any previously provided information which is or becomes inaccurate). You further acknowledge that the provision of incorrect information in connection with obtaining prescription medicines may constitute a criminal offence.
  16. Partner Prescribers, Partner Pharmacists, Partner Contributors and Associate Practitioners will keep records of each consultation or other communication with you and it is their responsibility (where applicable) to maintain your clinical and other records as required by law and in accordance with the Privacy Notice. We may hold those records and will maintain them as required by law and in accordance with the Privacy Notice.
  17. If a Partner Prescriber prescribes you a medicine, you must carefully read all information provided to you via the Platforms about that medicine, the information contained on any packaging or leaflets provided with the medication as well as any information provided in connection with the Pharmacy, if applicable.

  18. It is your responsibility to advise your general medical practitioner of any medicines or treatments our Partner Prescribers have prescribed you. However, if you would like our Partner Prescribers or Partner Contributors to forward such information to your general medical practitioner on your behalf, please let your Partner Prescriber or Partner Contributor know and provide your written consent for us to do so.
  19. You should seek medical advice immediately if your medical condition changes or your symptoms worsen, either by contacting your general medical practitioner, dialling 111, or if you think you are in an emergency situation or need urgent assistance, calling 999 or seeking urgent medical help at your nearest hospital emergency department. You agree that, if you suffer from any noticeable side effects from any medication or treatment you receive, you will either consult your general medical practitioner or contact us to facilitate a further consultation with a Partner Prescriber or Partner Contributor.

Without limitation, if the Pharmacy or Associate Courier does not have all the information it requires to dispense or deliver the prescribed medicine to you (as applicable), then a different delivery time may apply.

7. Payment for the Services

Subscription payments

  1. With the exception of certain products and services which may be purchased on a one-off basis, most Services offered via the Platforms may only be purchased on an automatically renewing subscription basis, including the Juniper Weight Reset Programme. This means that at each subscription interval (usually monthly), we will conclude a new contract with you pursuant to which you agree to pay the subscription fee and we agree to provide the Services (as applicable to you). The terms of that contract will be communicated to you during the order confirmation process. 
  2. If and for so long as a subscription contract is agreed between you and us, you agree for the payment mechanism you have provided us to be billed at regular intervals. We will give you notice of this in advance of each renewal date, and provide you the opportunity to pause or cancel your subscription before your contract is renewed.
  3. When you conclude a subscription contract with us, the fact that the subscription fee is a particular price (or that any other term provides for particular rights or obligations) does not constitute a representation that renewed contracts with us will contain that subscription fee (or any other term). Accordingly, we may, in our sole discretion, vary the fees and payment terms applying to the Services at any time. 
  4. Any change to the fees or payment terms applying to the Services will be immediately effective upon the publication of that change on the Platforms or by otherwise providing notice to you and will apply to the Services requested by you in the subsequent subscription interval following that change.

  6. All prices listed on the Platforms for the Services are inclusive of VAT and shipping costs where relevant.
