Figure 1 - Medical Cases

Loved this app a lot - until they made it exclusively for healthcare professionals only. Enquiring minds aren’t enough apparently. Gutted.

Not trustworthy - there are better sources of learning out there than this medical website!

Best medical app. So educational and informative. Thank you guys

Echoing feedback and comment below - other platforms like MedShr far better as closed and verified - exclusively for doctors and REGISTERED Hcps.

A safe place for learning and collaboration

It is very good for health care professionals.

It's great for aspiring healthcare professionals, academics, those with a keen interest in medicine or others who are just fascinated by human anatomy and physiology.

Figure 1 used to be an app for medical professionals that encouraged discourse and learning. The biggest mistake was giving alternative medicine quackery an unbridled platform, allowing for its promotion to rob vulnerable patients of their money via pseudoscience. Continued protestations of this from the community were ignored, and eventually when it all blew up and the community started to call these unscrupulous folks out on their snake oil behaviour, Figure 1 elected to side with the pseudoscience. Extremely heavy handed moderation tactics coupled with the promotion of pseudoscience led to several long time and prominent members deleting their accounts, specifically ones who have uploaded hundreds of genuinely educational cases that contributed hugely to evidence based medicine and learning. Cack handed mismanagement from its founders have proven that they are quite clueless when it comes to paying attention to combating quackery and its promotion, amongst other things. Should you choose to use this app, please be aware that it employs over zealous moderation of anyone who challenges pseudoscience, to the detriment of its own integrity. The app's biggest user with the highest number of cases removed himself from the site after being thoroughly disgusted with the founder's actions. Avoid.

Accessible, interesting cases most if not all of which are contributed by the Figure 1 community. The app itself is fairly intuitive and so shouldn't pose a big problem to use. Thanks to the organisers of and contributors to this valuable resource.

A friend of mine showed me this app and it looked great however when I downloaded it the app just crashes every time I try to open it.
