About Us

HealingWell.com is a thriving community and information resource for patients, caregivers, and families coping with diseases, disorders and chronic illness. Our goal is simple....to help people on their way to "healing well". To achieve this goal, we offer health resources, interactive tools, and community support to enable individual's to take control of their illness and start the healing process. Currently, HealingWell.com features health articles, medical news, video webcasts, community message boards and chat rooms, clinical healthcare resources, email, newsletters, books and reviews, and resource link directories on a wide range of diseases, disorders and chronic illness. Health content is contributed by reputable health organizations, including the National Institutes of Health, Mediwire, e-HealthSource, and Healthology Inc. 

HealingWell.com got its start over 10 years ago in 1996.  With a staff of over 60 volunteers, the site is headed by founder and editor, Peter Waite.  His vision was to build a site with global reach that was both free and informative and a place where people could find support and understanding.  The site also includes our bookstore WellnessBooks.com, an Amazon.com affiliate, which offers a secure and convenient way for visitors to read reviews and purchase books on many health conditions.  

Over the years, HealingWell.com has been featured or profiled by several national and international media publications, including BBC Online, USA Today, MSNBC, the New York Times, the Associated Press, the Industry Standard, Reader's Digest, PBS, Forbes.com Magazine, and most recently, USA Weekend Magazine.  HealingWell.com was also featured in a book by NBC's Today Show medical correspondent, Dr. Ian Smith's Guide to Medical Websites, described as "information-packed" and a "professional yet friendly site". HealingWell.com has also been the recipient of numerous awards. The site has grown largely by word of mouth, serving hundreds of thousands of visitors each month.  The quarterly HealingWell.com newsletter has thousands of subscribers, as does our community forums and chat.  

HealingWell.com is supported by donations, book sales, and sponsorships.  Visit our advertiser page for more details.
