About Us
We say what a source says and no more, and we name the source so you can check it.
Why plain language matters
Dense medical documents are written for specialists, and a reader is often left guessing what a line means for them.
Treatment questions and where to read more
Where a page touches treatment choices, we point readers to public sources such as the Office on Women's Health page on menopause treatment and leave the medical judgment to a clinician.
Lodi provider pages
Our provider pages in Lodi report what each provider's public Google listing and its own website say. We note the date we read them.
Standards every reading has to meet
- Say what a source says and no more.
- Name the source, so you can check it yourself.
- Say plainly when a figure was unavailable instead of filling the gap.
- Keep sentences short.
Lodi and the surrounding area
Our provider pages cover Lodi. If you want general background on the area before reading them, this Wikipedia entry on the county is one place to start.
Taking a reading to your clinician
Pick a topic page, read it with your own documents beside you, and write down your questions. Take them to your clinician. A reading of a document or a listing can tell you what the source says, but not which care is right for you.
