SunnyPharma publishes independent health education for people facing the cost of treatment. Every clinical article is written by a qualified medical writer and reviewed by a physician who works in the relevant field. This page explains who does that work and how we hold it to a standard patients can rely on.
Named, accountable. Each article carries the writer and the physician reviewer responsible for it — no anonymous medical claims.
Reviewed by clinicians who practice. Our reviewers treat and research the conditions they review, so guidance reflects current care, not generic summaries.
Sourced from primary evidence. Content is checked against prescribing information, treatment guidelines, regulators, and peer-reviewed research.
Independent. No manufacturer, advertiser, or pharmacy controls our conclusions or our medical review.
Why this work matters
People who are rationing medication or navigating an HIV or hepatitis C diagnosis are often handed information that is either too technical to act on or too vague to trust. SunnyPharma exists to close that gap: accurate enough for a clinician to stand behind, clear enough to use in a pharmacy line or an insurance call.
The reviewers and writers below contribute their expertise to make high-cost treatment more understandable and more reachable. That work serves the individual patient reading a single page, and it serves the wider effort to make credible medical information freely available to the people who need it most.
Medical review
Reviewers evaluate every clinical claim, medication-safety statement, and risk explanation against current evidence and guidelines before an article is published or updated.
Medical Editor
A professor of medicine at the University of Bonn and a leading clinician-researcher in HIV and hepatitis C co-infection, Prof. Rockstroh oversees SunnyPharma’s editorial medical standards. His review ensures the site’s guidance reflects the current state of treatment from someone who both treats these conditions and shapes the evidence base behind them.
Medical Reviewer — Infectious Disease
Head of Infectious Diseases at a major teaching hospital, Dr. Mishra reviews content on HIV treatment, antiretroviral therapy, hepatitis C, and patient-facing medication safety, with particular attention to how clinical guidance translates into real decisions for patients.
Medical Reviewer — Internal Medicine
Dr. Mohan reviews content spanning internal medicine, infectious disease, antiretroviral pharmacology, and medication safety, checking that clinical statements are accurate, appropriately caveated, and useful to a non-specialist reader.
Medical Reviewer — Infectious Disease
An infectious disease physician and clinical academic whose research bridges HIV therapy and its long-term effects, Dr. Payne reviews treatment and drug-safety content, bringing a research-active perspective to how evidence is represented for patients.
Cardiovascular review
Our anticoagulant content — covering medications such as rivaroxaban and apixaban — is reviewed by cardiologists, whose expertise in heart and clotting disorders ensures this guidance meets the same clinical standard as our infectious-disease content.
Medical Reviewer — Cardiology
A cardiologist and clinical faculty member in cardiology in British Columbia, with a focus on heart-function care, Dr. Swiggum reviews SunnyPharma’s anticoagulant and cardiovascular content for clinical accuracy and safe, patient-appropriate risk communication.

A chartered biologist, Ray Ashton writes on medication access, treatment cost, and drug safety, pairing scientific rigor with patient-readable explanation.
Medical Writer
Ana Goios writes evidence-based medical content and leads SunnyPharma’s Spanish-language education, applying the same sourcing and clarity standards across both languages so Spanish-speaking patients are served as fully as English-speaking ones.
How we work
Every clinical page moves through the same path, designed to keep unsupported claims out and keep important information current:
- Research against prescribing information, treatment guidelines, regulators, and peer-reviewed literature.
- Drafting into clear, structured patient education without losing clinical accuracy.
- Medical review by a physician in the relevant field for accuracy, safety, and guideline alignment.
- Publication with the writer, reviewer, and review date shown on the page.
- Updates when new evidence, approvals, guideline changes, or pricing materially change the article.
SunnyPharma content is educational and does not replace advice from a licensed healthcare professional. Patients should speak with their clinician before starting, stopping, or changing any medication.
Our editorial policy sets out in full how we create, review, update, and disclose health education — including our standards for independence, evidence quality, and corrections.
