Editorial guidelines

Last updated: [Placeholder date — confirm before launch]

Every page about a condition or procedure on this website is written to be accurate, clear and honest. These are the standards we hold our content to.

Clinically reviewed

Procedure pages are written and reviewed by Dr. Omar Y. Elbasatiny, who performs these operations. Content reflects current, mainstream surgical practice.

Sourced claims

Statistics, prices, recovery figures and medical claims are stated as ranges and are backed by a source or clearly marked as clinic-specific. We do not publish invented numbers.

Plain language

We explain medical terms the first time they appear and avoid jargon where a simpler word will do — the same principle that guides the consultation itself.

Kept current

Pages are reviewed periodically and updated when guidance or the practice’s approach changes. Each page shows when it was last reviewed.
