Healthline is the fastest and easiest way to find, understand and manage information about consumer health. Its mission is to empower health information seekers by providing them with an innovative and unique guided search experience - one based on trust, comprehensiveness, contextual relevancy, personalization and interactivity. Healthline was founded in 1999 as YourDoctor.com by Dr. James Norman, whose vision was to use the Internet to offer consumers the most accurate, relevant health care information available. During this time, the company retained the services of more than 1,100 physicians, specialists and medical editors to write and edit original consumer-oriented information focusing on diseases and conditions. These medical professionals helped develop the two components that form the foundation of Healthline.com: a medical taxonomy to organize the content, including an 800,000-word synonym database to map everyday language to medical terminology; and HealthMaps, visual tools designed to provide information in a map format to help users navigate through the many different aspects of a disease or condition.
