Metaclinic is an exclusive online community that connects medical practitioners regionally and nationally. We link our members both on a professional and social level, by allowing them to join individual networks based on their location and medical specialties.

By using your full name, the verification of your professional status is made easier. Moreover, we're aiming at creating a trustful and professional community. An untruthful or deceptive profile, or fake name, not only casts doubt on a particular member account, but it casts doubt on the community itself.

When you send an "Add request" to a certain member, the other member has two proactive options: ignore, or accept. If they choose ignore, your request will become hidden to them and your name will automatically be added to an "Ignore" list in their profile. They will no longer receive "Add requests" from you, and may also customize their privacy settings so as not to receive messages from specific people in their "Ignore" list.

Yes. You can simply add people to your "Ignore" list. This means that you'll never receive any requests from them, unless you decide to remove them from that list. You can remove people from your "Ignore" list at anytime. This will automatically show all previous "Add" requests received from people who were on your "Ignore" list. Moreover, you can adjust your settings so that you would not receive messages from people on you "Ignore" list.

You must join at least two networks: One "Location" network and one "Specialty" Network. You may however join up to two "Specialty" networks, in addition to your "Location" network.

An attending and a program director have the ability to send online referrals among themselves. Moreover, other members can only contact them by sending an "Add request" to them. If they accept that, then you can freely message and interact. This is done so as to limit the amount of messages that a program director or an attending receive from less senior doctors.

English is the most common primary or secondary language of our members. It is also the most common language used in the medical practice. We want all discussions and content on the website to be accessible to our members.

A shout out is a simple way to communicate among members. You can offer things, share events, ask for help.etc. Please refrain from idle chatter in the "Shout Out" area. Be brief and informative.

You decide. Simply type in your message and then choose whether you want it accessible to specific networks or to all our members.

Anything that is medically related. Presentations, articles, studies, research material..etc. Make sure to respect all intellectual property rights of any uploaded or downloaded material. We would certainly like our members to share material that is entirely their own. If not, make sure you provide proper references.
