talkhealth are proud to be collaborative partners with NHS Choices.
Each month talkhealth hosts exclusively ‘Online Clinics on ...’ partnering with NHS Choices and the national charities associated with the clinic's topic. The clinics are run across all talkhealth websites and cover a wide range of health conditions. The forums are open for a week at a time offering the opportunity for questions and queries to be answered by a panel of leading medical experts who specialise in the clinic’s topic.
Primarily, the aim of the clinic is to provide the opportunity for everyone to communicate directly and easily with a specialist, to share knowledge and act as a future reference source. After the forums are closed, all information is available to read via NHS Choices or talkhealth sites.
The clinics offer charities the opportunity to heighten awareness of a condition. There are also sponsorship opportunities available.
This month's clinic: Online Clinic on Food Allergy - 21 - 27 February 2012

| "My partner (being a man!!) didn't want to 'talk' to other people who had also been diagnosed with prostate cancer via forums so I did it for him. Your site gave me access to top the surgeons who gave us the information we both needed - sooooo helpful. I can't praise the site enough and will be spreading the word ... Thank you very much. You've been a Godsend." Hilary, UK |
