How we make our content

Health information is only worth anything if it's right. This page sets out exactly how we research, write, check and date everything you read on My Health Choice — including where AI helps and where a doctor takes over.

The process

Three steps, one named GP

No invented review board, no imaginary fact-checking department. This is the whole pipeline.

Drafted

We research from UK clinical sources and draft with AI assistance. Drafting is the start of the process, never the end of it.

Reviewed by a GP

Dr Ashish [Surname], a GMC-registered GP, reads, corrects and signs off every health page. Nothing clinical publishes without his review.

Dated and re-checked

We publish with a review date and come back to the page on a set cycle, or sooner if UK guidance changes.

Dates, defined

What the dates mean

Three different stamps appear on our pages. Each certifies a different thing.

Stamp one

“Last medically reviewed”

The date our GP reviewer last checked this page for clinical accuracy.

Stamp two

“Updated on”

The date we last edited the page — a price, a link, a typo. An edit is not a medical review, so the two dates can differ.

Stamp three

“Next review due”

When we'll check the page again. If guidance changes before then, we don't wait.

Who reviews

One reviewer, named and checkable

Every health page carries a byline naming its author and its reviewer, kept visibly separate, with the dates above. The reviewer's name always links to his profile, where you can check his registration on the official GMC register yourself.

Ashish reviews our condition and education pages for clinical accuracy. He doesn't write the comparison data, set prices, or take part in commercial decisions — his profile page spells out that boundary in full.

Methodology

How we review providers

When we assess a provider, we record facts about the service, never the medicine. We don't currently publish a score or rating of our own — a scoring rubric is planned, and it will be published on this page before any rating appears. Four kinds of fact go on the record.

  • GPhC registration — is the pharmacy on the official register? Where we can verify the entry, we link it so you can check it too.
  • Price transparency — is the full price shown upfront, with no hidden add-ons at checkout?
  • What's included — whether the consultation, follow-up and delivery sit inside the published price.
  • Independent reviews — what verified customers say, always attributed to the source.

We check these at our desks, against the registers and the providers' own published pages — we don't claim to have used each service as a patient. Anything we can't verify is left off the card, and payment from a provider never changes what we record.
