Last updated: September 2026
The information provided through Tsintavis Functional Medicine on tsintavismed.com, including related pages, resources, downloads, videos, emails, guides, programmes, and other materials linked from the website, is provided for general informational and educational purposes only.
We aim to provide information that is accurate and up to date. However, health and medical information evolves over time, and general information presented on this website may not be complete or appropriate for every individual situation.
Your use of the website and reliance on general information provided through it should not replace appropriate individual professional advice or assessment.
1. Medical and health disclaimer
Tsintavis Functional Medicine presents the work of two independent healthcare practitioners: Panagiotis Tsintavis, MSc, RD, FMCP, Dietitian–Nutritionist, and Dr. Varvara Zisimidou, MD, Specialist in Internal Medicine. Each practitioner provides and invoices their own professional services independently and remains responsible for their own professional practice. Where appropriate, the two practitioners may collaborate in the care of a patient.
The information provided on this website is not intended to replace personalised medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or ongoing care from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
The content is general in nature and may not be appropriate for your individual health circumstances.
You should not start, stop, or change any medication, supplement, diet, treatment, testing plan, or health protocol solely on the basis of information found on this website.
Any personalised professional recommendation requires an appropriate individual assessment, taking into account relevant factors such as medical history, symptoms, medications, laboratory findings, lifestyle, and individual circumstances, as applicable.
Using this website, reading its content, downloading resources, subscribing to a newsletter, watching videos, or purchasing educational materials does not by itself establish a doctor–patient relationship or another individual professional-care relationship with either practitioner.
2. Emergency disclaimer
This website is not an emergency medical service.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency or serious symptoms, including but not limited to chest pain, difficulty breathing, fainting, a severe allergic reaction, acute neurological symptoms, suicidal thoughts, severe abdominal pain, heavy bleeding, or any rapidly worsening condition, seek urgent medical assistance through your local emergency services.
Do not delay seeking appropriate medical care because of information you have read on this website.
3. No guarantee of results
Health outcomes vary from person to person.
Information concerning functional medicine, nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, laboratory testing, programmes, protocols, or health strategies is provided for educational purposes and does not guarantee any particular outcome.
Testimonials, case examples, programme descriptions, or general statements appearing on this website should not be interpreted as promises, guarantees, or assurances that another person will achieve the same or similar results.
Individual outcomes may be influenced by many factors, including medical history, current health status, adherence, medications, lifestyle, environment, genetics, and other individual circumstances.
4. External links disclaimer
The website may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, tools, services, articles, videos, products, booking systems, payment processors, patient portals, social media platforms, or other external resources.
These links are provided for convenience or informational purposes.
We do not control third-party websites or platforms and cannot guarantee their accuracy, reliability, availability, security, privacy practices, or content.
The inclusion of an external link does not necessarily constitute endorsement or approval of all content, products, or services available through that third party.
If you choose to access or use a third-party website or service, you should review its applicable terms, privacy policies, and other relevant information.
5. Affiliate and referral links
Some pages on this website may contain affiliate or referral links connected to commercial arrangements entered into by Panagiotis Tsintavis through his independent business activity.
If you purchase or use a product or service through such a link, Panagiotis Tsintavis may receive a commission or other benefit, generally at no additional cost to you.
These commercial relationships do not form part of Dr. Varvara Zisimidou’s independent medical practice, and she does not receive affiliate commissions through the arrangements disclosed on this website.
Where affiliate or referral links are used, we aim to disclose this clearly and reasonably close to the relevant link or recommendation.
Any reference to a product, supplement, test, tool, programme, service or other resource is provided for informational purposes and does not replace individualized professional judgment or assessment.
Any decision to purchase or use a product or service remains yours. You should consider your individual needs, health circumstances, budget and any appropriate professional advice before proceeding.

Testimonials, reviews, case examples, or patient experiences displayed on this website or in related materials reflect individual experiences and opinions.
They do not represent or guarantee that another person will achieve the same or similar outcome.
Testimonials may be edited for grammar, clarity, length, or readability without intentionally altering the substance of the experience described.
The views expressed in a testimonial belong to the individual who provided it and do not necessarily represent the views of either practitioner.
Testimonials should not be interpreted as evidence or a guarantee that any product, programme, supplement, service, or approach can diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure a disease.
Identifiable testimonials or health experiences are not published without appropriate permission.
