Unlike every other dialysis and transplant site on the web, D&T City does not rely on donations or sponsorship from corporations or special interest groups in the dialysis-kidney community. Our philosophy is that you cannot accept money from special interests groups and maintain the freedom to report on their activities. Once sponsorship has been accepted, truth is no longer the driving force of the site. Notice to Members: The bartering or sale of organs for transplantation is not permitted on this site. Those who attempt to do so will be banned.
Notice: MSN and D&T City take no responsibility for the content of postings made by members of this community. Any organization or individual who feels that inaccurate or disagreable information has been posted on this site is invited to respond with a follow-up post in their own defense. Posters who desire to remain anonymous will remain so. Even if you register, which you must do in order to use this site, you can remain anonymous. Simply don't register with any demographic information. We support your Constitutional First Ammendment Right to Free Speech! Dialysis & Transplant City is a non-profit site run by an all volunteer staff. We do not receive income or donations from any agency, corporation or individuals, which leaves the contributors and community members the freedom to say what needs to be said for the benefit of the ESRD industry. |
