About Dean Silver Wellness
What This Publication Is
Dean Silver Wellness is an independent wellness editorial publication built on a straightforward premise: adults navigating complex health decisions deserve better information than most supplement and telehealth review sites provide.
This site was developed with a medically-informed editorial foundation. The content reflects years of engagement with clinical literature, integrative medicine research, and the practical questions that real patients bring to real conversations with their healthcare providers. That foundation shapes how we approach every topic we cover — with specificity, appropriate skepticism, and a commitment to representing what the evidence actually shows rather than what would be most convenient for commercial purposes.
What we produce is wellness journalism: research-informed, editorially independent, commercially transparent, and written with the reader's ability to make genuinely informed decisions as the primary goal.
What This Publication Is Not
Dean Silver Wellness is not a medical practice. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or clinical services of any kind. No content on this site should be interpreted as establishing a physician-patient relationship or as a substitute for consultation with a qualified, licensed healthcare provider.
This publication is also not affiliated with the Silver Institute for Integrative Medicine, any clinical practice previously associated with this domain, or any physician currently or previously in practice. If you are seeking clinical care from a physician, please contact a licensed healthcare provider directly.
We are an editorial operation. We read the research, verify the labels, evaluate the evidence, and report what we find. We are not the practitioners who deliver care.
The Editorial Approach
The wellness supplement and telehealth industries are crowded with content that exists primarily to generate affiliate revenue, not to genuinely serve the reader. Product reviews that describe every formula as a “breakthrough.” Ingredient analyses that cite whatever study produces the most favorable framing. Comparison articles that have already decided the winner before the review begins.
We built this publication to be something different.
Every product review on this site begins with the Supplement Facts panel — not the brand's marketing page. Ingredient dose claims are verified against the label before we write a single sentence about efficacy. Studies are cited with author names, years, and journal titles — not described vaguely as “clinical research suggests.” When a product's ingredient doses fall below the amounts used in the cited research, we say so. When the evidence base is limited to in-vitro or animal studies, we say that too. When a supplement's marketing claims exceed what its ingredients can plausibly support, that is part of the review.
We apply the same standard to telehealth platforms: three-entity transparency (platform, prescribing network, dispensing pharmacy), pricing accuracy, regulatory compliance, and honest representation of what compounded medications are and are not.
Our Commercial Relationships
This publication earns revenue through affiliate relationships. When you purchase a product through a link on this site, Dean Silver Wellness may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These are paid links, and we disclose them as such — in-article, before the first paid link, on every page that contains them, and in our Affiliate Disclosure.
Commercial relationships do not determine which products we cover, how we evaluate them, or what conclusions we reach. Our editorial process runs the same regardless of whether a commission exists. Products that do not hold up to scrutiny are reported that way.
This is not a promise we expect you to take on faith. It is a standard we hold ourselves to in every published piece, and one you can verify by reading how we handle the products that fall short.
Who Writes Here

Our content is developed through a verified research process described in full on our How We Review page. Our sourcing standards, corrections policy, and editorial independence guidelines are documented on our Editorial Standards page.
We do not publish content under the byline of any named, currently-practicing physician. The “MD” in this domain name reflects the site's history and the medically-informed perspective that shapes our editorial approach — not a claim of active clinical practice or a physician-patient relationship of any kind.
