THE SHORT VERSION
- Good information should be understandable, traceable and honest about its limits. Here is the standard behind SlimBee’s guides.
Start with the source
For UK medical information, we prioritise the MHRA, current UK patient leaflets, NHS guidance and NICE recommendations. A licence, a NICE recommendation and a local NHS service are different things; we explain which one a statement refers to. We use the appropriate regulator when discussing provider registration.
Explain without promising
We write for a reader who is new to the subject. Technical terms are explained where they are needed. If a study is discussed, its population, duration and limitations matter. A study average is not an individual forecast. We avoid before-and-after promises, invented patient stories and claims that a treatment is best for everyone.
Be clear about authorship and review
“SlimBee editorial” identifies the publisher. It does not imply medical credentials. A page must not display a clinician’s name, qualification or review date unless that person and that review have been verified. Editorial changes and source collection dates are separate from clinical review.
Keep the money information understandable
Tables show what the source listed, with a visible collection date. Ranking is lowest listed price first; equal prices are ordered by provider name. Rankings do not assess clinical quality or decide treatment suitability. We do not silently substitute old values and label them live.
Corrections and changes
Send the page URL, the wording you think is wrong and a reliable source to corrections@slimbee.co.uk. Do not send medical records. Material corrections should explain what changed; a minor wording or formatting edit is not a new clinical review.
The October 2026 rebuild removed conflicting legacy claims about named medical reviewers, added source dates to comparisons and preserved the existing article URLs.
AI and search visibility
Structured data describes the visible page, its publisher, sources and links. It is not a certification. SlimBee does not promise search rankings, AI citations or inclusion in an answer engine. The same helpful content is available to a reader and to a crawler.
