This page contains links to a selection of medically oriented Web sites. This is by no means an all-inclusive list; the number and variety of sites of medical interest continues to grow on a daily basis. If you have any suggestions regarding links to worthwhile sites not listed here, please let us know by e-mail.
We have tried to include sites which are run by reputable organizations. We cannot overemphasize the importance of considering the quality of the source of information obtained from the Internet, especially with regard to health matters. "Cyber-quackery" is already a widespread problem.
Some of these sites contain information/advice sheets you can download and links to disease-related support groups; all of them include links to closely related sites.
