Student Health Service
Welcome to Health Information Links, I am Bob Flaherty, a physician at the Montana State University Student Health Service. There are over 500,000 health-related Web sites. Unfortunately, many are inaccurate, misleading or just plain wrong. I have listed below several Web sites that have accurate, reliable health-related information that you can trust, as well as some on-line guides to show you what to look for (and what to look out for!) when you view health-related Web sites. Let me know if you find other good sites.
