Health Information Made Honestly
What we focus on: clear sourcing, your privacy, and information you can actually verify.
Sourced & Human-Edited
Content is researched from recognised authorities, drafted with AI assistance, and edited by a person — with sources linked so you can check them. We’re open that there’s no clinical review panel; see our Editorial Policy.
Privacy-Respecting
No login required. The calculators run entirely in your browser — what you type isn’t stored or sent to us. We don’t sell data or build health profiles. See our Privacy Policy.
Fast & Accessible
The site is built to load quickly on any device, and we aim to keep it usable with a keyboard and screen reader. If something isn’t accessible, please tell us so we can fix it.
Evidence-Based
Medical claims are drawn from primary sources — PubMed-indexed research, WHO, CDC, NICE, and NIH — not pseudoscience or uncited health blogs.
Who’s Behind My Medicine Advisor
We think it’s only fair to be clear about who writes what you’re reading.
Written & Edited by One Person
My Medicine Advisor is an independent site run by its founder and editor, Sameer Patel. Sameer is not a medical professional — he’s a former banker who researches each topic from recognised sources and edits everything published here. More about us →
How the Tools Are Built
The calculators apply established, published formulas — and each one names the method and source it uses, so you can verify it yourself. See our references →
Are You a Clinician?
We’d genuinely value qualified medical reviewers to help check our content. If you’re a licensed clinician or researcher open to reviewing, we’d love to hear from you. Get involved →
References & Clinical Sources
We build our tools and articles from primary medical references and globally recognised clinical guidelines — not secondary blogs or unverified health sites.
