Pros: Intuitive web site with multiple resources and tools for any user. No registration necessary to access content. Articles are clear and informative.
Cons: Home page is crowded with links to subareas within sections. Some users may find link presentation difficult to decipher. Content is somewhat crowded and takes time to find specific topics. Very distracting advertising featured on every page.
The Bottomline: Clearly presented content for those seeking health and medical information. Presentation may be tricky for some to navigate as organization is not necessarily intuitive.
