NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC⚠️
WARNING on FAKE ACCOUNTS claiming to be doctors affiliated with the National Kidney and Transplant Institute (NKTI).
We would like to warn the public of the increasing number of social media accounts using fake photos and profiles of NKTI medical staff, claiming to dispense medical tips and advice and selling non-FDA approved medicine and nutritional supplies.
We would like to reiterate that the NKTI, being the national specialty center for renal care and organ transplantation, DOES NOT endorse, support, nor advertise products claiming to cure or prevent kidney and other diseases.
We are encouraging the public to help fight disinformation on social media and to report fake accounts using unauthorized photos of the NKTI, its medical staff and employees.
We are also advising our patients and other stakeholders to visit ONLY NKTI’s official channels such as its website and page for LEGITIMATE and ACCURATE information about our services and activities.
You may also email our Public Information Office at [email protected] should you have questions and feedback about our services.
