With no fanfare, no fireworks, no dye in the river or even a tea party, today we posted our 1,000th (and 1001st) story review on HealthNewsReview.org. This has become extremely gratifying work – so much so that I have resigned my tenured faculty position at the University of Minnesota effective the end of May to work on this and related projects fulltime.
Thanks for your interest and support. We hope we’re making a difference in helping to educate smarter health care consumers directly or through the journalists who serve them.
Disclaimer: I welcome comments but will delete those with any kind of product pitch, profanity, personal attacks or those from anyone who doesn’t list what appears to be an actual e-mail address. I will also end any thread of comments that are repetitive. Because I moderate comments, I can’t keep reacting to repeatedly inaccurate or unsubstantiated claims. We don't give medical advice so we won't respond to questions asking for it.
We look for more critical analysis of FDA expedited approval of a new drug like this.
Five-star story on small study that tries to counter large body of evidence on soy supplements for hot flashes.
Our reviewers, including a leading women’s health clinician-researcher, felt this piece would have been benefited from more data and context.
We will not display your name or e-mail address on the site, nor will we share youre-mail address with any third parties.
