About Us

ehealthMD is brought to you by Health Information Publications (HIP), a company specializing in creating outstanding, highly authoritative, up-to-date health information delivered over the Web.

We are committed to leading the field in offering the most authoritative, visually compelling, and dynamically presented health information in the world. Our mission is to produce the "gold standard" for health information on the Internet.

Our company's roots were put down in the 1980s when Health Information Publications produced booklets distributed throughout the United States and United Kingdom on a wide variety of health conditions and their treatments. We have now moved from print to electronic communications, and our commitment to producing top-quality health information has not changed.

By assembling an editorial board composed of luminaries in the field of medicine, and a team of over 200 physicians recognized worldwide for their contribution to medicine, HIP has created a 100% original new source of outstanding and trustworthy health content available on the Web.

A team of 65 award-winning writers and designers has helped to ensure the exceptional presentation of our material. We have sought out some of America's outstanding medical illustrators to prepare the highest quality artwork to support our content.

The ehealthMD Library, developed by HIP, has been described variously as "the world's best," "extremely rich content," and "magnificent." It covers the entire spectrum of medical and health-related subjects in depth, striving to provide the most authoritative, trustworthy, and reliable health information source on the Internet.

We also have developed an online chat application to allow real-time chat online with a doctor or health provider, to be released soon.
