Changing the Game
Healthline attributes its rise to the top spot to the ways it has changed the game for people seeking health content and community. Healthline delivers empathy and a “whole person” approach, along with medical accuracy, meaningful community engagement, and content that consumers need along their health journeys.
Medical integrity, relatability and trust are essential ingredients in the Healthline content development process. “I enjoy working with Healthline to provide up-to-date and relevant medical information for patients. The Healthline format allows patients to easily navigate an often-confusing atmosphere on the internet with confidence. Healthline is a trusted source for patients and doctors,” said Dr. David Shafer, MD, FACS, a member of Healthline’s medical network of more than 100 professionals.
Ultimately, however, the true sign of success is that Healthline is helping people make healthier decisions. Healthline’s content provides, in the words of a Healthline consumer, “life-changing information to help us optimize our overall health and well-being.”
#1 But Not Done
Healthline is proud to be #1, but is nowhere near done. Healthline is committed to building a stronger, healthier world by making a real difference in the lives of real people, and there’s a lot more to accomplish.
