Links between terms would help

Please let me know of any upgrades! I am trying to understand my wife’s complicated illnesses, and the up-to-date information you provide has been so helpful! The detail available and it’s clarity are very helpful to the lay person. However, there are often other technical terms in the descriptions, and it would help if there could be links to the terms embedded in the text. Obviously, this would have to be done gradually, given the number of terms in the dictionary.

Increased Understanding Through The Maze

I have several multi systemic diseases. They are so complex I’ve had the do my own research. This app has made it easier to have some understand of the complex jargon I need to process. Even the simplified articles are loaded with doctor speak. This app explains it all. Thankyou for helping us non medical humans 👍🏼

Fast and Information is relevant

The main advantage to using this app compared to a web search is you will only get relevant information instead of a bunch of random things. Way, way, way better to use than a web search.
