MyHealthInfoSource LLC was founded by Diane Spicer and built on a solid foundation of education and experience. As an educator, researcher, mother, and consumer of medical care, she understands how important it is to find facts quickly when faced with a diagnosis for yourself or a loved one.
Americans are on information overload
A quick Google search will return thousands of hits per keyword, but how do you organize and apply all of it to your particular medical decision? As I tell my students, retrieval and comprehension are worlds apart.
The time surrounding diagnosis and treatment is emotionally draining. When you are facing a health care decision for yourself or a loved one, you need clarity, not overload.
It would be our pleasure to find and interpret the medical literature for you. This leaves you free to invest your time and energy into finding your way back to health.
Our mission is to put credible, current, comprehensive, customized medical information into your hands.
Some medical report services charge you for a quick MedLine search (which is free to anyone with computer access), then send you abstracts (summaries) of the research (also free). You're left to figure out what the statistics and jargon mean by yourself.
Some companies send you mostly pre-written reports, recycled from other clients and not customized to your situation. Others don't update their information often enough, or pass on everything they find without checking for quality.
We're different because we take pride in being medical information analysts.
We dig deeper to find every credible source of current medical information, searching the Hidden web and subscription-only databases with expert search strategies.
In addition, we rank the results we find for reliability and validity, using multiple indicators for quality.
Then we go one step further: using years of experience, we read and analyze every current research article that is clinically relevant to your particular situation (not just the summaries, called abstracts). This analysis examines not only the results, but the strengths and weaknesses of the methods, and how the results may be biased.
We share our analysis with you in 2 ways: a visual summary table, plus a written analysis with all of the details.
We translate the medical jargon and statistics into a straightforward report, giving you reliable, current facts to use as a basis for your medical decisions. We also leave you a road map of where we found each source.
Think of us as an interpreter of the medical landscape. We're not going to tell you what to do, but we'll give you a guided tour of your particular medical topic, pointing out all of the important things to consider with your diagnosis.
