1. Content: Brief but good information for parents - presented in a reassuring manner that their children can live normal lives. Includes links to additional information under various subtitles. The left column has additional chapter headings that can be clicked on for information and a link for professionals. You can sign up for a newsletter. Even though there is not a lot patho on this page I liked the way they jumped in and made parent feel comfortable right away and then included information so parents and kids can live normal lives.

2. Design: Easy to use and move around. There are no distractors. The flow of the page is good with highlighted chapter areas so you can easily locate what you are looking for. The left column makes it easy to access further information without reading through the chapters. Easy to sign up for the newsletter. I thought this might be aimed at children of Jewish descent only but it is not.

3. Author: is listed at the bottom with a link to his bio. His credentials are appropriate and include a membership in AAAAI (see #1). It shows where he did his medical training. He is board certified in Peds, Allery and Immunology. He completed his Fellowship in Allergy and Immunology in l976. It includes links to publications and includes a list of recent publications. Last it includes his CV.

4. The intended audience is parents although there is a link for professionals. There is also a link for Spanish.

5. I did not see a link for help with the site but there is an 800 number at the bottom to call.
