Medical review process

Health content carries real responsibility, so every guide goes through a clinical review before it is published for readers and search engines.

What review covers

• The medical claims are accurate and match current consensus.
• The balance is right: common causes are framed as common, and warning signs are neither understated nor exaggerated.
• The advice on when to see a doctor is clear and safe, with no diagnosis or treatment instruction that belongs with a clinician.

Who reviews

Guides are reviewed by a qualified, named clinician whose credentials and profile are shown on the guide and on their reviewer profile. We do not present a guide as reviewed until that review is complete, and a guide still awaiting review is labelled plainly.

Dates and updates

Each guide shows when it was published and last updated. When guidance changes or a reader flags an issue, the guide is revised and, where the change is material, reviewed again.

A note on our tools

Our self-check tools are designed for wellness and awareness. They help you notice and track changes over time and point you toward care when a sign matters. They are not a diagnosis and do not replace a clinician.
