Pros: Very visually appealing interface that is intuitive and easy to use.
Cons: Some of the WellPage links take you to personal blogs which are not written by experts or medical professionals. These are listed as “articles” which is deceiving.
The Bottomline: Wellsphere.com has an easy-to-use interface that is visually appealing. There is a lot of information on the site, but some of it is provided by users, not healthcare professionals and may be inaccurate.
