Medical Journals

The top peer-reviewed medical journals- MDLinx's medical journals and newsletters make it easier for physicians to stay up-to-date. MDLinx.com was developed by doctors for doctors. The network of sites uniquely captures the most pertinent, unbiased information for physicians. The MDLinx network works by aggregating research and medical news from peer-reviewed journals, including The New England Medical Journals, The Journal of the American Medical Association, Circulation, The Annals of Internal Medicine and The archives of Surgery. The organization of news into subspecialties from the foremost medical journals eliminates the need to search innumerable sites in order to find the research developments and peer issues most relevant to a physician's practice. With MDLinx, it is possible for a medical specialist to get today's medical journals. Click Medical Journals to view a sample.

The success of MDLinx is largely the result of providing a straightforward solution to a major frustration that physicians face- staying current with the volumes of new medical developments. The rapid increase of health-related Web sites has augmented the volume of material without organizing the most important and reliable information. Although most leading medical journals have developed Web sites, their online presence has not made doctors' pursuit of current news more efficient or more effective. In addition, patients are increasingly using the Internet to find medical newsletters and information and are questioning physicians about the latest news, drugs, diagnostic procedures and treatment options. The ability to deal with these inquiries affect a physician's credibility and standing with patients.

One feature that physicians have found particularly useful is the free daily medical newsletters. "The brilliance of the concept is that for those physicians that are too busy to come to the site, the MDLinx site will come to them in the form of email newsletters", says Alan Meckler, CEO and chairman of internet.com, an investor in MDLinx. These unique daily newsletters, a compilation of the top news in each specialty, provide direct links t online journal articles and abstracts. A doctor merely subscribes to the daily medical newsletters, and the specialty news is delivered to the physician's inbox each day. MDLinx already has more than 90,000 subscriptions to its email newsletters.

National physician leaders are catching on to MDLinx. Dr. Mehmet Oz, an assistant professor of cardiac surgery at Columbia University, currently sits on the Board of Directors of MDLinx. "The biggest problem I have as a clinician is I can't weed my way through all the material that comes across my desk everyday", Oz says.

MDLinx is an e-health company founded by two clinicians frustrated with the disorganization of medical information of the Internet. After wasting hours each week searching for relevant information to stay current in cardiology, Dr. Evan Garfein and Dr. Robert Ashton developed the idea to create a technology that could scan all the most trusted peer-reviewed journals on a daily basis and categorize the news in a highly specialized manner.
