Our Commitment

Accessible to all patients

Truesdale Facial Plastic Surgery is committed to ensuring that doctortruesdale.com is accessible to people with disabilities. We believe that every patient — regardless of ability — deserves equal access to information about Dr. Truesdale’s practice, his approach, and the consultation process.

We continually work to improve the user experience for everyone and to apply the relevant accessibility standards. This statement was last reviewed in April 2026.

Conformance Status

WCAG 2.1 Level AA

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

doctortruesdale.com is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. “Partially conformant” means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform to the accessibility standard — we are actively working to remediate these areas.

In addition to WCAG 2.1, this site is designed to align with applicable provisions of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it pertains to public-accommodation websites.

What We’ve Done

Accessibility features in place

Semantic structure. Proper HTML5 landmarks (header, navigation, main, footer), heading hierarchy, lists, and form structure throughout the site.
Skip-to-main-content link. A keyboard-accessible link appears on focus so keyboard and screen-reader users can bypass the navigation.
Image alternatives. Every meaningful image carries descriptive alt text; decorative images are marked accordingly.
Form labels. Every form input is programmatically associated with a visible label and exposed to assistive technology via for/id pairing and aria-label fallbacks.
Keyboard navigation. All interactive elements (links, buttons, accordions, video players, navigation, forms) are operable with a keyboard alone. Visible high-contrast focus indicators show where you are.
Screen-reader support. ARIA roles, states, and live regions announce page changes and dynamic content. The site has been tested with VoiceOver and NVDA.
Color contrast. Text and meaningful interface elements meet or exceed the WCAG 2.1 AA contrast ratio of 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text and UI components).
Reduced motion. Animations and parallax respect the operating-system prefers-reduced-motion setting and pause for users who request it.
High contrast mode. The site responds to prefers-contrast: high with strengthened text and border colors.
Touch targets. Interactive elements meet a 40×40 px minimum target size (WCAG 2.5.5 guidance).
Resizable text. Page layout remains usable when text is enlarged up to 200% in the browser.
Language declared. The page’s primary language is identified so screen readers pronounce content correctly. A built-in EN/ES translator is available in the navigation bar.
Video captions. Every video file shipped from this site has a corresponding WebVTT caption track loaded automatically. Decorative loops are labeled as silent; patient stories with audio link to the fully captioned YouTube version.
Known Limitations

Areas we are still improving

Despite our best efforts, the following items are known to fall short of full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance. We are actively addressing them:

  • Inline patient testimonial videos.

    Every video file embedded on this site ships with a WebVTT caption track that is loaded automatically when you press play. Captions describe the content (music, narration, dialogue) and direct users to the fully captioned YouTube versions of any clip with extended audio dialogue. Fully captioned long-form versions of patient stories are also available on the Beyond the Surface YouTube channel.

  • Third-party embeds.

    Some embedded content (Instagram reels, Google Translate widget, financing partner forms) is provided by third parties and may not fully conform to our accessibility standards. We continue to work with these partners and surface alternative paths to the same information.

No downloadable PDF documents are currently served from this website. All patient information and forms are presented as fully accessible HTML pages. If you ever need any content in an alternative format, please contact us and we will provide it within five business days.
