Consumer Health Newsletters
Often our patients and families have questions about various conditions, medications, supplements, foods, or studies that have recently been in the news or have experienced buzz on social media. The following newsletters are excellent resources for short articles—written expressly for patients and families—that put the news and buzz in perspective of evidence and the larger body of knowledge.
These newsletters can be used when you are at the Medical Center or connected remotely via VPN, your MyAccess login, or the UCSF Library's remote access bookmarklet.
And as always, you can contact the library or refer your patients and families directly to us for help!
