Editorial standards and medical review policy

How we research

Every condition, symptom, and treatment article is researched against peer-reviewed medical literature, the American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines, the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and other authoritative sources. We cite our sources inline. We do not invent statistics. We do not fabricate clinical outcomes.

Who reviews our content

Condition, symptom, and treatment pages are reviewed for clinical safety, source quality, urgency language, and appointment usefulness before publication. When a licensed physician is credited as the author or medical reviewer, that person's name and credentials are visible on the page.

Our credited physician authors and reviewers are listed on the Authors & reviewers page.

How we label sponsored content

Some practices in our directory are Participating Practices — practices that have completed a verification process or profile review. Some are Featured Participating Practices or Sponsored Participating Practices — practices that may pay for enhanced visibility, scheduling links, patient handoff pages, or other digital participation tools. Featured or sponsored placement is always labeled and does not influence the editorial content of condition or symptom pages.

What we will not do

• We will not rank or score practices by undisclosed criteria.
• We will not accept compensation that depends on whether a reader books an appointment.
• We will not use phrases like "top doctor" or "best doctor" to imply clinical superiority.
• We will not publish patient testimonials that we have not verified.
• We will not use AI to draft clinical content without physician review and approval.
• We will not present sponsored content as editorial content.

Corrections and feedback

If you find an error in our content, contact our editorial team at editor@findaurologist.com. We publish corrections transparently with the date of the change.
