How the Journal works
Every article carries a number only Whelth can produce, drawn from Whelth Research's data — that is the test for whether a piece runs. Recognition lists state their criterion in plain words on the page; the directory produces the candidates, and a person then reads each candidate's website and keeps only the practices where the criterion holds, quoting the practice's own words with a link to the source. Lists are unranked and alphabetical. Inclusion describes what a practice publishes — never clinical quality, outcomes or an endorsement — and nothing is paid for.
Each article states when its data was collected and when it was published, and is corrected in place when a reader shows us an error. Claims about treatments are held to the same sourcing as the reports — regulators, professional bodies and peer-reviewed trials — under Whelth's editorial policy. Practices covered in profiles or interviews are chosen on the same data criteria as recognition lists, and no coverage is ever paid for.
Practices: if you meet a list's criterion and are not on it, or want an entry corrected, email Sanaz, Research & Partnerships, WHELTH — sanaz@whelth.com. Listed practices can claim their Whelth listing.
