The NHS has been present on the internet for some time - but they have recently merged and revamped their main websites to create a single portal to all things involving the health service.
The NHS's new site brings the organisation bang up to date with a fresh new look that is easy to navigate and interesting to browse around.
At http://www.nhs.uk you can find information about services, general advice on living well and staying healthy, or seek quick answers to your health concerns with a symptom checker, which offers alternative ways to get in touch with NHS Direct.
The Health A to Z covers everything from Arthritis to Yellow Fever, with information about the symptoms and advice about various treatments.
I particularly like the way many of the sections integrate blogs, patient comments & online guides & videos.
This is nothing like a long boring sit in the Accident & Emergency room and should be the very first place you head to if you're worried about your health.
