Editorial Standards

Our commitment to providing accurate, evidence-based, and trustworthy health information to help you make informed healthcare decisions.

Our Mission

OurHealthNetwork is dedicated to providing accurate, up-to-date health information to help patients make informed decisions about their healthcare. We believe everyone deserves access to clear, reliable information about medical specialists, conditions, and treatments.

How We Create Content

Step 1

Research from Authoritative Sources

Our health content is researched from peer-reviewed medical literature, clinical guidelines from professional medical associations, and government health agencies. We prioritize the most current and evidence-based information available.

Step 2

Alignment with Clinical Guidelines

Information about medical conditions, treatments, and when to see a specialist is aligned with guidelines published by each specialty's primary professional organization (such as AAD for dermatology or ACC for cardiology).

Step 3

Regular Updates

Medical knowledge evolves constantly. We regularly review and update our content to reflect current medical consensus. Each page displays when it was last updated.

Step 4

Transparency

We cite our sources on each specialty page so you can verify information and explore topics further. Our goal is to empower you with knowledge, not to replace professional medical advice.

Our Primary Sources
