I am on Web MD very often. It has a lot of good information and the website is easy to navigate. I am often wondering about what medicines I should be taking or what vitamins I should be taking. I also use it whenever I have pain or something else that is out of the ordinary. I can put in my symptoms... review »

 Although the site shows you a way to diagnose your problem. It's hard to find solutions you can afford or have in your house hold. Most people agree that to have it already on hand or in the nearby future allows you to be at ease.Rather than wait. other than that I have no problem with others checking... review »

I love this site! It is so helpful for a variety of uses and is easy to use. I can't stand websites that are not appealing to look at or are confusing to use, but this one is neither. In fact, it is the opposite. I use it often to look up symptoms with the symptom checker. Mostly I use it for my nutrition plan. I have been on a health kick lately and I'm eating right and losing weight thanks to this site. I have the website saved to my favorites so I can easily look up calorie content of foods I eat each day. This has been the #1 thing that has helped me lose weight! It is so easy to keep track...

Wonderful for starting knowledge of a problem. Good list of resources. Lists even the rarest of diseases. Love symptom checker. This feature allows to choose more than one area of the body, which is wonderful. I love the fact that is continuously states that you should not rely in this information as  a diagnosis and to seek the help of a health professional.

I always go to this website when I am looking for what I could have considering my symptoms. And when I have to go to the doctor and when I don't have to. Shows home treatments and what you should ask when you go to the doctor. The only problem I have is sometimes the website has too many ads and banners which slows down the website.

Web MD is really informative.  I have marked the areas of interest and receive emails from them regularly.  I also refer to it for other health questions.  They are very clear on visiting your physician and not relying totally on this site.  I have learned alot about migraines, their triggers, medications, and other helpful tips.  I have also gathered several questions to ask my physician on my next visit.  I have learned alot about perimenopause, it's symptoms, vitamins, minerals and other relief methods.  I also have alot more to discuss with my gynocologist on my next visit.  Fibromyalgia...

WebMD is a great web site to go to for any medical questions.  I have used it many times for so many different kinds of questions and have gotten an answer every time, whether it is what I wanted to see or not.  I think it is great that they have such a web site as WebMD, because not every body can afford to go to the doctors or you just simply need a simple answer to some question that you don't really need to go to the doctors for and WebMD usually always has an answer for you.  It has helped me out many times.  I have even looked up stuff for my friends.  You can find answers about medicine...

Need trusted information on a condition or symptom? WedMd.com is the place to go. The site is easy to navigate and offers several sections on each condition from symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, and more. This website is not to be used instead of consulting your physician, but is a great reference spot to start from.

I am an EMT and work in the ER. I love this site. I can go to it and look anything medical up and trust what it says. I can even go on there while I'm work the ER and look something up if I'm not sure of it and trust that I can tell my patient the truth.

With 3 kids &  6 grandkids, it seems someone is always asking me if I know anything about a certain health condition.   Searched out a few sites under google but always end up back at Web MD.   They can help you scan through the symptoms & then give a list of what could be the problem & what can help.   I also use it before going to a Dr. appt. so I'm well informed on a condition, my options, what I should ask about, etc.  Glad to have this site available to me as you never know when you need health information.
