Code of Conduct

Patients, Family, and Visitors

ColumbiaDoctors’ philosophy is to provide a safe and healthy environment for all patients, visitors, and staff.

It is not our policy to change providers or assigned staff when the request or statement is related solely to the provider’s personal identity such as age, color, disability, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, marital status, military status, national origin, race, religion/creed, sex, or sexual orientation.
It is the responsibility of all patients, families and visitors to speak and act in a respectful and safe manner.
There is a zero-tolerance policy for aggression directed toward our staff or others associated with the practice.
Please be respectful with the use of cell phones and other electronic devices. When interacting with our staff, please set your devices to vibrate and put them away.

Physically assaulting or threatening to hurt anyone associated with the practice through phone calls, letters, voice mails, emails, or other forms of verbal, written, or electronic communication, including social media
Attempting to intimidate or harass others
