Should I be concern that my surgeons website has been suspended?

Question

Hello, I had an evaluation with a surgeon about two weeks ago to inquire about eyelid surgery, I looked at his before and after photos and they looked great. I try going to his website to review the before and after photos and its telling me the account has been cancelled. Is this a RED FLAG...should I be concern and why would surgeons website be suspended?

Hello!  Thank you for your question!  The answer may be as simple as the server being down.  Other likely reasons include updating the site and/or changing website host company. If you liked the surgeon, it would be best to call the office for a consultation and simy discuss your issue. They will likely have an answer for you. Best wishes!

There are a host of reasons why this might occur. Most often this is a website or hosting technical issue. If you're concerned you can call the office or schedule a followup meeting with your surgeon. Hopefully, they are aware of the issue but they might not be. Let them know.

Hello Lulu.  There are several reasons why one's website may be cancelled.  It could be that the physician is building a new website with a different company or revamping his/her existing website.  Best to call the physician to get an honest answer.  You may also want to seek other consultations as well just in case there are other issues.

Sean R. Weiss, MD, FACS · Answer

If you had a good feeling with the surgeon and you feel confident that he can help with your concerns then don't let the down website bother you.  If it does bother you call his office and ask why it is down.  There are a number of reasons that the site may not be up, and you should not change your mind about him based on this.
