As an LLC, Rural Family Doc is a for profit business. Most of the profit is obtained through consultation, affiliate links and eventually advertisements. This does introduce conflict of interest and thus I am disclosing this openly.

 

Most product links will be affiliated, meaning that if you click it and buy the product, a small part of that sale goes to RFD. Thus, if you were already going to purchase the product on Amazon or other online store, by clicking on the links here you are supporting this company, its mission and 10% of that profit will go into the rural premed scholarship. 

 

Certain conflicts of interest will be specifically addressed and minimized by not using affiliate links. For example, I will not receive any affiliate income from links to life saving interventions such as CAT tourniquets.  As a doctor I want citizens and readers to know that financial interest is not influencing evidence based interventions that improve quality of life and safety in rural communities. If you have questions please contact me.
