“I started My Medicine Advisor to make health information genuinely easy to find and understand — sourced from primary medical authorities and written in plain language, so anyone can use it.”— Sameer Patel | Founder & Editor, My Medicine Advisor
Our Mission
Reliable health information should never be locked behind paywalls, medical jargon, or confusing tools. We’re working to change that — one clearly written, well-sourced article at a time.
Important Medical Disclaimer
Our tools and content are for general educational purposes only. They do not replace professional medical diagnosis, treatment, or emergency care, and they are not a substitute for advice from your own doctor. If you have urgent symptoms, please contact your healthcare provider or local emergency services immediately.
Accessible to Everyone
We make health information available in plain language, free of charge, without requiring an account or subscription of any kind.
Built on Primary Sources
Our content is researched from primary authorities like the WHO, CDC, NIH, NICE, and PubMed — and every medical claim links back to its source so you can verify it.
AI-Assisted, Human-Edited
We use AI tools to help research and draft content. Every article is then reviewed and edited by a human, and checked against the sources it cites, before it’s published.
Privacy by Design
No login required. No data resale. Our calculators run in your browser, so the numbers you enter aren’t stored or sold.
Mobile-First Tools
All of our tools are built to be fast, mobile-friendly, and easy to use across devices — designed for readers of all ages and abilities.
Updated Over Time
We revise content when clinical guidelines change or when a reader flags something that needs correcting. Our corrections process is open to anyone.

Editorial Independence & Advertising Policy
We maintain full editorial independence from all advertisers, sponsors, and affiliate partners.
