Health on the Web

Beaumont Hospital Foundation is happy to provide information on sources of general health information BUT if you are troubled then you need to visit your GP.

The information contained on the following websites - or on any health related website should only be used as a source of health advice. Sites which promote therapies that replace reliable methods can be damaging and can seriously disrupt a patients treatment. It is very important that you check with your GP before trying any treatments you may read about whether on the web or in any other media. One more word of warning - never buy pharmaceutical drugs over the Internet.
