At ROOTOPATHY, ethics is not a policy - it is the foundation of every clinical decision.

Patient safety is not a checklist - it is the moral duty that governs how we think, listen, communicate, and act.

This commitment reflects global standards upheld by organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), The Lancet Commission, National Institutes of Health (NIH), and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
