AskDrWiki.com

A Wikipedia-style Web site for medical information started by physicians at the Cleveland Clinic enables health care professionals to submit content that other providers and the public can access. Ask Dr Wiki was launched in November 2006 by physicians who specialize in cardiology and electrophysiology. Ask Dr Wiki now requires users to submit their credentials before they can obtain editorial access. Physicians, nurses, technicians and medical students are eligible to submit and edit content.
