Submission standards

What a strong proposal includes

Propose a focused question that matters to patients. Explain the practical value of the article and the professional experience you bring to it.

Clinical claims must use authoritative sources such as peer-reviewed research, recognized medical bodies or government health agencies. Sources should directly support the statements they accompany.

Articles must be original, balanced and free from hidden advertising. Doctatoc may edit for clarity, request evidence, add safety context or decline material that does not meet its editorial standards.

Never submit confidential records or identifiable patient information. A proposal is not a channel for clinical consultation or urgent medical help.
