Medical Advisory Board

Our Medical Advisory Board

Every clinical page on NeuropathyAnswers.org is reviewed before publication by a physician member of our Medical Advisory Board. Board members are board-certified physicians with clinical or research expertise in peripheral neuropathy and related disciplines. They review our content for clinical accuracy, review our citations for representativeness, and flag any claims that exceed what the evidence supports. Their names, credentials, and financial disclosures are published here.

Board members are compensated for their reviews at a fixed rate disclosed on our Funding and Disclosures page. Compensation is not contingent on the outcome of any review.

Our Members

Our Medical Review Policy

Every clinical content page on NeuropathyAnswers.org follows this review process:

Before publication

Each piece is assigned to a medical writer with appropriate subject matter background. The writer produces a draft using only primary medical literature, clinical practice guidelines, and government regulatory documents as sources. That draft — including all citations — is submitted to an assigned Medical Advisory Board member for review. The reviewer checks each clinical claim against its cited source, flags any claims that exceed what the cited source actually shows, and either approves the piece or returns it for revision. The piece is not published until the reviewer grants approval. The reviewer's name, credentials, and review date appear on the published page.

After publication

Reviewed pages are scheduled for re-review no less than once every ninety days. Pages on topics with active clinical or regulatory developments — including new treatment approvals, changes in Medicare coverage criteria, or the publication of major new clinical trials — are flagged for expedited re-review when those developments occur. The “Last reviewed” date displayed on each page reflects the most recent physician review, not the most recent editorial edit. A page that receives a copy edit for clarity without a change in clinical claims is not re-reviewed; the date does not change.

Reviewer independence

Reviewers do not communicate with our funder in their capacity as Advisory Board members, and our funder does not participate in the review process in any form. Reviewer compensation is paid from the site's operating budget but is not conditioned on any review outcome. A reviewer who disagrees with a piece's framing, scope, or conclusions may decline to approve it, require revisions, or decline the assignment; they do not face any consequence for doing so.

Corrections

When a reviewed page is found to contain a clinical error — whether identified by a reader, a reviewer, or our editorial team — we correct it, note the correction at the bottom of the page with the date and nature of the change, and preserve the original version in our internal records. If the correction is clinically material, we notify subscribers who received the affected content. Correction requests can be submitted through our contact form.
