Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Michael Ghermezi, MD is committed to making this website usable by as many people as possible, including individuals with disabilities. We continually work to improve accessibility and usability in accordance with applicable federal and California requirements.

We aim to conform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines provide recommendations for making web content more accessible to individuals with disabilities and more user-friendly for everyone.

Our accessibility efforts are intended to support compliance with applicable accessibility requirements, including:

  • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Title III
  • California Unruh Civil Rights Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 51)
  • California Disabled Persons Act (Cal. Civ. Code §§ 54–55.32)
  • Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, where applicable

Website Accessibility

We strive to consider accessibility in the design, content, maintenance, and ongoing development of this website.

Accessibility considerations include, where applicable:

  • Clear and consistent page structure and headings
  • Descriptive alternative text for meaningful images
  • Readable text and appropriate color contrast
  • Properly labeled website forms
  • Clear and descriptive links
  • Keyboard-accessible website navigation and interactive elements
  • Responsive design for desktop, tablet, and mobile devices
  • Compatibility with commonly used browsers and assistive technologies

Because website technologies, accessibility standards, and assistive technologies continue to evolve, accessibility is an ongoing process.

Ongoing Accessibility Efforts

Accessibility is a process, not a single event. As website content, technology, accessibility standards, and assistive technologies evolve, we will continue working to improve the accessibility and usability of this website.

We may periodically modify, update, replace, or add website content, features, functionality, and third-party integrations. New or updated content may occasionally present accessibility challenges that were not previously identified.

When accessibility issues are identified or brought to our attention, we will make reasonable efforts to evaluate and address them.

Although we strive to provide an accessible experience, some content or functionality may not yet fully conform to every accessibility standard or may not function optimally with every browser, device, or assistive technology.
