Thanks for a clean interface, fast searching, and relevant information.
Search results for health-related queries much more pertinent than results through Google!
I certainly remain impressed how HealthMash blends functionality elements and (in particular) coverage of some other quality resources into one interface with tabs for websites, articles, trusted sites, videos, news, twitter etc. That creates as far as I can see very relevant and comprehensive results for some searches I tried.so far. Your ranking algorithm seems to work very well indeed.
When I'm trying to find information about a medical condition or procedure, I don't want to get a mess of links and false descriptions. Also when I use medical search engines that search only in medical databases, I don't want to be limited to websites, but I'm also interested in other resources such as quality Twitter users, videos or books focusing on the search term. That's why HealthMash saves me plenty of time and clicks.
I tried to use both HealthMash and Google to search for cardiovascular risk factor questionnaire. I had 2.700.000 million results in Google, however, I have got only 2(!) relevant results on the first page. On HealthMash I got only 146 results, however I had 7(!) relevant results on the first page. When I say relevant, I mean, that I could not find complete downloadable cardiovascular risk factor questionnaires, but I could make my own pretty easily based on the relevant pages.
