Emergency care can feel overwhelming
Decisions move quickly. Much of the reasoning behind care is invisible. MEDICALLY CLEARED is created by a Board-Certified Emergency Medicine Physician to make that reasoning clear. This site is organized around three core ideas.
-
How an ER visit unfolds.
The Wait. The Workup. The Plan.
From arrival to discharge, this section explains what happens and why. -
How emergency physicians think.
Symptoms, testing, procedures, and time-sensitive decisions.
This section explores how choices are made under uncertainty. -
Reducing risk before an emergency happens.
Prevention, risk reduction, and habits that support long-term health.
How to use this site
Every in-depth article is called a Clearing. Each section begins with a Featured Clearing that builds the foundation. The articles that follow expand from there. You can read sequentially or explore by topic. If you are new, begin with The Process.
