Our Mission
Our story begins with a personal loss. When our founder’s mother was diagnosed with liver cancer, he experienced firsthand how difficult it can be to find clear, reliable, and timely health information in a moment of crisis. He discovered that important scientific research often takes years to reach the public, and for many families, that delay matters immensely.
Gilmore Health News was created to bridge that gap. Our mission is to make credible, science-based medical knowledge accessible and understandable, empowering our readers to make confident and informed decisions about their health.
Our History and a Point of Clarification
To build a platform for this mission, our founder acquired the domain GilmoreHealth.com at auction in 2018. We chose the name partly because “Gilmore” is a name in his family’s history, representing the personal commitment behind our work.
We want to be completely transparent about the domain’s past and address a common point of confusion:
- The domain GilmoreHealth.com was once associated with the Gilmore Memorial Hospital in Amory, Mississippi. This hospital no longer exists under that name.
- The facility at that location is now part of the North Mississippi Health Services system and is known as the North Mississippi Medical Center Gilmore-Amory.
Gilmore Health News is an independent digital news publication and has absolutely no affiliation, past or present, with either the former Gilmore Memorial Hospital or the current NMMC Gilmore-Amory Hospital. We are a separate, global media organization.
Who We Are Today: An Independent, Mission-Driven Publisher
Gilmore Health News is owned and operated by the Brux10 Trust, a private entity founded with the sole purpose of supporting projects that improve public health literacy. The benefactor behind the Trust wishes to remain anonymous to ensure the focus remains on our mission, not on any individual.
While the Trust guarantees our financial independence, our editorial integrity is managed by our public-facing team of credentialed experts. Our content is created and meticulously reviewed by experienced medical journalists, doctors, nurses, and researchers who are passionate about public health education.
Our Editorial Standards: A Commitment to Accuracy and Trust
Every article we publish must meet the highest standards of accuracy, objectivity, and helpfulness. Our process includes:
- Evidence-Based Sourcing: We rely on peer-reviewed studies, data from organizations like the NIH, CDC, and FDA, and guidelines from professional medical societies.
- Expert Creation & Review: Our articles are written by qualified professionals and are rigorously fact-checked and reviewed by our Editorial Team for clinical accuracy before publication.
- Our multi-step verification process involves rigorous primary source checking by our writers, careful cross-referencing with established clinical guidelines, and a final, thorough review by at least one member of our expert Medical Review team to ensure every article meets our standards for accuracy and clarity.
- Regular Content Updates: Medical science evolves. We regularly review and update our content to reflect the latest research and treatment protocols.
Our Funding & Independence
To ensure our content remains free and accessible to everyone, Gilmore Health News operates on a dual-funding model that is designed to protect our editorial integrity.
Our primary financial support comes from the Brux10 Trust. This foundational, mission-driven funding allows our editorial team to focus exclusively on creating accurate, in-depth, and helpful content without the pressure of commercial interests or production quotas.
To build a sustainable future and continue growing as a free public resource, we also feature advertising on our site. Our long-term goal is for this advertising revenue to allow Gilmore Health News to become fully self-sustaining.
We maintain a strict and absolute firewall between our advertising partners and our editorial team. Sponsors and advertisers have no influence whatsoever over the content we create. All advertising on our site is clearly marked as “Advertisement” and must adhere to our strict advertising policy. Gilmore Health News does not endorse any advertised product or service.
