Health information is only useful if it is accurate. This page explains how the educational content on alicetrannp.com, every blog article, condition page, and guide, is written, reviewed, and kept up to date.
All health content on this site is written and medically reviewed by Anh Tran (Alice), PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC, a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner licensed in Virginia and board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Alice completed advanced clinical training under Dr. Errol Segall, MD, a psychiatrist with more than 50 years of experience who serves as the practice's clinical supervisor.
Evidence first. Clinical claims are based on peer-reviewed research, clinical practice guidelines (such as those from the American Psychiatric Association, the American College of Physicians, and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force), and established references including the DSM-5-TR. Key articles include a sources list.
Plain language. We write for patients and families, not for clinicians. Medical terms are explained when they are used. Content is published in both English and Vietnamese wherever possible.
Honesty about limits. Educational content is not medical advice and does not replace an evaluation with a licensed clinician. Where the evidence is mixed or an answer is "it depends," we say so.
No sponsorships. We do not accept payment from pharmaceutical companies or any third party to feature, recommend, or review any medication or product. No content on this site is sponsored.
Articles are reviewed when clinical guidelines change, when readers or patients flag an issue, and on a rolling basis. Each article shows the date it was written or last medically reviewed.
If you believe something on this site is inaccurate or out of date, please email info@alicetrannp.com. We review every report and correct errors promptly.
Nothing on this site is a substitute for emergency care. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) or go to your nearest emergency room.
