Question 1

What is Condition Search?

Accepted Answer

MediFind covers thousands of health conditions, including rare, complex, serious, and chronic diseases. Condition Search connects you to information about any health condition including its causes, symptoms, treatments and more. The information in this Condition Overview section comes from a combination of trusted resources, including government organizations (such as the U.S. National Institutes of Health), expert-reviewed content providers (such as A.D.A.M.), leading accredited advocacy and awareness groups, and our team of medical experts at MediFind. This section also provides a preview of the elite doctors who specialize in that condition, latest research into treatment advances and news for that condition, and clinical trials for that condition. Think of Condition Overview as the jumping-off point for learning everything about a health condition, especially if you have just been diagnosed. Whether you have been recently diagnosed with a serious disease like Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, breast cancer, lung cancer, or any number of other types of cancer, MediFind can help you get up to speed on the current knowledge about your condition.
