How to choose, without a ranking

We have not assessed any clinic in Glasgow, so we do not publish lists of the best ones. What we publish instead is the criteria, the questions and the reasoning, so you can run the assessment yourself on the clinics in front of you.

01

Choosing a clinic

Ten criteria, in order. It takes longer than reading a top ten list and it is the only version that is actually about the clinics in front of you.

02

Reading clinic marketing

Twelve phrases, what each one usually means, and the question that turns it back into information.

03

Clear, not loud

Why the things that build patient trust are the things that are difficult to fake, and why so few clinics publish them.

No commercial links on this page

This article contains no affiliate links, no sponsored placements and no links to any clinic, practitioner, brand or retailer. Nobody paid for it and nobody previewed it. We name no clinic in Glasgow because we have assessed none, and a publication that has not assessed a business has nothing useful to say about whether it is good.

Two archive pages on this site carry a single disclosed editorial link each, and both are labelled on the page itself. This is not one of them. The whole arrangement is set out in our editorial standards.

Nothing here is medical advice. Speak to a qualified clinician about your own case.

The monthly briefing

One email a month. What changed in Scottish regulation, what a treatment turned out not to do, and which claims are worth a second look.

One email a month at most. It carries a single clearly labelled sponsor line, which never influences what we write. No clinic buys a mention in the editorial part of it. Unsubscribe in one click.
