How medical information is prepared and reviewed
This policy explains how patient education on this website is written, medically reviewed, sourced and kept accurate.
Responsibility
Authorship and medical review
Clinical and patient-education pages identify Dr. Arun Gangadhar as the author or medical reviewer where appropriate. His qualifications, training and professional roles are listed on the About page.
Medical review checks that explanations are clinically appropriate, understandable and consistent with the scope of the page. Review dates are shown on medical pages when a documented review has taken place.
Evidence
Source selection
Where medical guidance or procedural information needs supporting context, priority is given to recognised professional societies, public-health bodies, clinical guidelines and peer-reviewed consensus documents.
Sources are selected for direct relevance to the statement being explained. References do not replace individual medical advice, and links to outside organisations do not imply endorsement of every statement on those websites.
Maintenance
Updates and corrections
Content is reviewed when clinical guidance changes, when an important factual correction is identified, or when practice details such as locations and timings change.
Substantive medical reviews are reflected by the date displayed on the page. If you find a possible error or outdated practice detail, please use the clinic contact page so it can be checked and corrected.
Purpose
Educational information, not a diagnosis
The website provides general health education and information about Dr. Arun Gangadhar's professional practice. It is not a substitute for a consultation, examination or emergency care.
Severe breathlessness, chest pain, confusion, blue lips, or significant coughing of blood requires urgent assessment at the nearest emergency department.
