Sponsored Content Opportunities

Get more information about sponsoring content on familydoctor.org.

Due to the heavy traffic and preferred status among health care teams, familydoctor.org enjoys one of the best marketing tools you can’t buy—word-of-mouth referral. Sponsors leverage this status to help drive results.

Opportunities for sponsorship include Doctor’s Notes and the familydoctor.org Symptom Checker. We also offer opportunities for sponsors to provide original content or to collaborate with the AAFP to develop powerful content focused on patient health.

Sponsored content goes through the same rigorous medical and editorial review process as health articles created by familydoctor.org. All content posted on familydoctor.org must:

  • Meet the AAFP’s criteria for clarity, objectivity, and medical accuracy
  • Adhere to evidence-based medicine
  • Agree with AAFP policies and clinical practice guidelines
  • Express a family medicine perspective
