Editorial Policy & Medical Review Process

Purpose

Medical information on Shanti Nursing Home's website is patient-focused, evidence-based and reviewed by a qualified gynaecologist. The goal is to give Saharanpur patients clear, trustworthy answers to common women's health questions — not generic content scraped from elsewhere.

Who writes and reviews our content

All clinical articles, FAQs, condition explanations and service descriptions on this site are written or reviewed by Dr. Vinita Malhotra, MBBS, DGO — Obstetrician, Gynaecologist & Surgeon with 30+ years of practice in Saharanpur. Where editorial support is used, every line is reviewed by Dr. Malhotra before publishing.

Sources we rely on

• Indian Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies (FOGSI) clinical guidelines.
• Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) recommendations.
• World Health Organization (WHO) women's health publications.
• American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) committee opinions.
• Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) green-top guidelines.
• Peer-reviewed journals (BJOG, Obstetrics & Gynecology, The Lancet) for individual topics.

How often we update content

Every clinical article has a "Last reviewed" date. Pages are reviewed at least every 12 months, or sooner when guidelines change. When we update an article materially, the date is refreshed and the substantive change is reflected.

What we will not do

• Publish fake or paid-for patient reviews.
• Make claims that aren't supported by current guidelines or peer-reviewed evidence.
• Diagnose, prescribe or treat over email, WhatsApp text or website forms.
• Recommend tests or procedures the patient doesn't need.
• Promote unproven supplements, "miracle" cures or alternative therapies in place of medicine.

Corrections

If you spot an error or want a clarification on any article, please email info@shantinursinghome.in. Substantive corrections are made promptly and noted with an updated "Last reviewed" date.

Advertising & sponsorships

We do not accept paid placements, sponsored articles or affiliate links on this site. The website exists to inform our patients and the Saharanpur community — not to generate advertising revenue.

Patient privacy in content

No real patient is identified in our articles. Testimonials, if used, are published only with the patient's written consent and may use a first name + initial.
