|  WARNING : This  service in no now way  intendeds to replace any part of a consultation with a medical doctor.

> I didn't really understand what my doctor said?
> My doctor was in such a rush - didn't get to ask him all I wanted to.
> What alternatives do I have?
> Should I see a doctor?....I have this lump...... 

The Medical Advisory hopes to deal with these problems and more.

> What's the CATCH?

None. We are a group of senior - clinically experienced - medical
students. We hope to help, and in so doing extend and reinforce our
own knowledge - a big plus at exam time. So it's a win win situation
so to speak. Clearly as students we are no alternative to a doctor -
but certainly can help and without the bills! One thing we depend on -
donations to cover costs such as phone bills and internet connection
fees - please put something back in if you feel you got something out
of the service. 

> How it works.

Simply reply to this article, we will send you the medical infromation
you need. The information will be in an easy to understand format, and
will be tailored to you particular circumstances. We will respond as
fast as we can - those who have donated will recieve first priority.

> To donate.

Just reply to this artcile, mentioning your desire to donate. We will
let you know what to do. Once you have donated, you will be given a
secret username - mention this when you use the advisory - you will be
place in first priority - a usefull thing as we frequently become
overloaded with requests. You may donate any amount.

> Should I rely on the advisory's information?

Certainly not - we do not pretend to be an alternative to your doctor.
But frequently doctors have too little time or lack the communication
skills to satisfy their patients. That's where we come in - to help
you. We can tell you what questions you should be asking your doctor -
so you are an informed consumer. Remember knowledge is power -
especially in the medical field and especially when ill.
