SMS communications may include:
- Appointment confirmations and reminders

Message frequency may vary based on patient interactions, scheduled appointments, and practice communications.

Consent to Receive SMS Messages
You will only receive SMS/text messages if you have provided explicit consent.
Consent is obtained when you:
- Enter your mobile phone number in a designated website form (contact, appointment request, or similar form), AND
- Check a clearly labeled SMS consent checkbox that is not pre-checked, indicating you agree to receive SMS text messages from [BUSINESS NAME].
This opt-in process makes clear the types of messages you may receive, that message and data rates may apply, and that you may reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance.
Consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of purchase, treatment, or use of services.
Records of SMS opt-in consent are retained for compliance and auditing purposes.
Opt-Out / STOP Instructions
You may withdraw consent and stop receiving SMS messages at any time.
To unsubscribe, reply STOP, END, CANCEL, or UNSUBSCRIBE to any message we send. After opting out, you will not receive further SMS messages from us unless you re-enroll and provide consent again.

South Florida Vascular Associates respects your privacy and takes reasonable steps to protect your personal data.
Mobile phone numbers and SMS consent data are:
- Used only for communications you have expressly opted into

We may share mobile numbers with trusted messaging service providers (such as Twilio or similar partners) solely for the purpose of delivering communications on our behalf.
Healthcare Communications Notice
Text messages may include service-related information such as appointments or follow-ups. Avoid sharing sensitive protected health information via SMS unless explicitly authorized, as SMS is not a secure communication method.
