http://www.oncolink.upenn.edu/ is a comprehensive information site for people with cancer. There are few, if any, issues faced by such patients that are not addressed in some way by this site or its links. Produced by University of Pennsylvania, it has excellent sign-posting that is easy to use. The range of issues covered is impressive, and includes the National Cancer Institute Physician's Guidelines, sexuality, and even how to pronounce different chemotherapeutic drugs. The art section shows uplifting images, called “Confronting Cancer Through Art.” All information published is attributed to an author, whose affiliation is stated, resulting in a transparency and reliability lacking in many consumer health sites. The depth of information makes the site useful for the most uninformed member of the public right through to oncologists. The global resources, book reviews and financial issues sections deserve special attention. Among thousands of cancer-related sites, this one must come at the top of any list for the physician or patient.
