Why US contributors write for us
Healthcare content from US-based professionals carries a specific kind of credibility with our readership. India looks closely at American medical research, FDA approvals, NIH guidelines, and treatment advances at institutions like Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and Memorial Sloan Kettering.
The South Asian diaspora in the United States numbers over four million people. Many simultaneously manage their own healthcare in the US while staying actively involved in medical decisions for parents and relatives in India. BestDoctorsInTheCity sits at that intersection.

What we publish from US contributors
Content does not need to be about the United States specifically — clinical expertise and accuracy matter more than geography. These angles resonate particularly well when they come from US contributors:
🩺
Clinical Condition Guides
Detailed, evidence-based articles written or reviewed by a US-licensed physician. Our readers trust American clinical expertise and engage deeply with this type of content.
🔄
Comparative Treatment Perspectives
Articles examining how a condition is diagnosed or treated in the US compared to India, or that help Indian patients understand international treatment standards.
🧠
Mental Health & Behavioural Medicine
The US is decades ahead of India in mainstream mental health awareness. US contributors in psychiatry, psychology, and therapy bring perspectives our readers actively seek — particularly on breaking stigma in South Asian communities.
💻
Health Technology & Digital Health
Articles on telemedicine, AI-assisted diagnostics, precision medicine, and digital therapeutics from US health tech professionals address questions our readership is increasingly asking.
🔬
Oncology Advances
American oncology is at the frontier of immunotherapy and targeted therapy. Patient-facing guides from US oncology professionals are among our highest-performing content categories.
❤️
Preventive & Lifestyle Medicine
Evidence-based preventive cardiology, diabetes reversal, and metabolic health content aligns with our readership's concerns given India's rising rates of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes.
📋
Medical Research Summaries
Accessible summaries of recent peer-reviewed studies, clinical trial results, or FDA approvals written for an informed non-specialist reader.
We cover 30+ specialties in total including cardiology, oncology, dermatology, gynaecology, orthopaedics, neurology, dentistry, ophthalmology, pulmonology, paediatrics, and more.
🇺🇸 US-specific note: NIH, CDC, FDA, and peer-reviewed US journals are all considered credible sources and actively encouraged as references in your article.
