I acknowledge and agree that I understand the following, with respect to services rendered by and their employees, consultants, and technical assistants, including Karen Leitner (“Practitioner”). While Practitioner is licensed in Massachusetts as a Medical Doctor, I am choosing to engage Practitioner as a life coach and/or weight coach only. This involves an individual assessment; goal setting; empowering thought, feeling, and action identification to achieve my goals; and individual, group and/or retreat coaching. Benefits, Alternatives & Risks: Benefits of life coaching include: greater relaxation, ease and feeling of overall well-being. Benefits of weight coaching include: movement toward weight loss and overall improved state of health and well-being. Alternatives to both include self-help techniques and medical or psychological care. Risks of both include distress, mental health issues which require referral to a suitable, licensed healthcare provider, dissatisfaction with results, and over-relying on life and/or weight coaching notwithstanding recommendations by Practitioner, when I know I should see a licensed physician, mental healthcare or other professional, to treat a physical or psychological condition. No Medical or Psychological Services: I am not engaging Practitioner for any medical or psychological or other healthcare services. I understand that Practitioner in her services pursuant to this Disclosure and Consent, does not diagnose, treat, or claim to cure any medical or psychological or other condition, and that Practitioner’s services are not designed to replace conventional treatment methods of medical or psychological conditions. Practitioner does not handle medical emergencies of any kind. I am responsible for my own health care decision-making by obtaining any necessary consultations with appropriately licensed health care professionals such as physicians and psychologists. I agree to seek medical assistance or psychotherapy or any other appropriate physical or mental diagnosis and treatment from a duly licensed practitioner (such as a licensed medical doctor or licensed psychologist) if I find that these distressing aspects create a danger for myself or for others.

Not Replacing Current Medical Care. Practitioner is acting in a supportive consultative coaching capacity and not as a primary care physician. Accordingly, Practitioner is not replacing care currently provided to me by other physicians or licensed healthcare providers, such as my current primary care physician, internist, gynecologist, cardiologist, gastroenterologist, psychiatrist, psychologist, pediatrician (in the case of children) or other specialty care. Practitioner has advised me that she does not admit patients to the hospital or treat hospitalized patients, and that I should maintain a relationship with a physician who is available to provide emergent and urgent care. If I encounter a medical emergency and am not able to obtain care from my primary care physician, I will contact 911 or report to a hospital emergency department. Practitioner does not provide on-call services. No Claims or Guarantees: I understand that Practitioner makes no representations, claims or guarantees that my medical problems or conditions will be cured, solved, or helped by Practitioner’s recommendations. Referrals: I understand that Practitioner may recommend that I seek other types of treatment from other health professionals who are not affiliated with Practitioner. I understand that Practitioner does not supervise these professionals and is not responsible for them. I understand that they are not her employees and that they will bill separately for their services. Assumption of Risk; Indemnity: I knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently decide to receive the services described above, and I knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently assume all risks involved in the same. As a result of my assumption of these risks, I agree to release, hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Practitioner from and against any and all claims which I (or my representatives) may have for any loss, damage, or injury arising out of or in connection with use of the treatments or services described above, or arising out of or in connection with referral to other practitioners or merchants for DocuSign Envelope ID: 2E308D48-1B29-479C-B619-B2EC441CF0F6 delivery of any services. As a result, I agree not to pursue a claim against any of the foregoing, if I am dissatisfied with the results of the above services.
