Health World Web is a social networking tool that allows you to take charge of your health. At Health World Web you can blog, chat and post to forums about your healthcare needs. In return, you'll meet like-minded users in your neighborhood and throughout the world with whom you can share both good and bad experiences.

Call it Healthcare 2.0. Health World Web operates on the notion that collective knowledge helps you make better, more informed decisions. After all, your health is your most important asset.

Health World Web members can create their own online communities, customize their content and arrange how the information is presented. We provide the platform, you provide the rest.

Health World Web members also have access to one of the web's most complete databases of health care providers. We have information on 1.5 million doctors and dentists in a range of specialties. We have information on their education and training, including board certification; on disciplinary actions; and on patient ratings. And once you've seen a physician, you can add your opinion to the knowledge base.

It's your site; you decide what to include. We just provide the tools.
