American Academy of Family Physicians
About this site: Familydoctor.org is “health information for the whole family,” and is produced by the American Academy of Family Physicians. As you might expect from a Web site written and reviewed by doctors and patient-education specialists, there’s plenty of helpful information on everything from allergies to yeast infections. Features include pamphlets in Spanish, a drug information database, and an online medical dictionary with more than 1,300 terms. (http://www.familydoctor.org)  Pluses: You can browse the collection of health information by common condition, area of the body, or special group (men, women, children, seniors, etc.).  Minuses: The diagnostic flowcharts in the Self-Care section can be a little confusing and terse.  Best feature: The Find a Family Doctor tool makes it easy to find an AAFP physician in your area. |
