Editorial Policy
LymeOrg aims to separate education from promotion, use clearer sourcing, and avoid overstating certainty in a space where patients already face too much confusion.
Core editorial principles
- Prefer source-backed educational language over hype, certainty, or exaggerated claims.
- Separate patient education, sponsorships, and any future directory listings as clearly as possible.
- Use plain language first, then add technical context where it genuinely helps.
How LymeOrg approaches sensitive medical topics
Lyme disease care often includes conventional, integrative, naturopathic, and anecdotal discussions. LymeOrg tries to label those differences clearly rather than blending them into one voice.
Readers should treat educational content as support for better questions, not as a replacement for direct care from a qualified clinician.
How directory content is verified
LymeOrg removed unverified records rather than presenting them as real practices. The directory now publishes primary-source checked institutional care resources, while individual clinician profiles require current license and board-history verification.
A future profile must match an active license, identifiable practice, working contact details, documented scope, current availability, and the location where care can legally be provided.
A listing will not equal endorsement, ranking, certification, or an outcome guarantee.
