1. What GastroGuide is

GastroGuide is a free educational and reference resource on gastroenterology and hepatology, operated by GastroGuide, Ireland. For healthcare professionals. Not intended for patients or for self-diagnosis.There are no fees, subscriptions or paid features, and no advertising.

2. Medical disclaimer

GastroGuide is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. It supports, and does not replace, clinical judgement. Always check with a qualified doctor or senior colleague, the original guideline and local policy before making medical decisions.

Summaries, checklists and calculator results are aids to memory and education. They may be incomplete, out of date or not applicable to an individual patient. Content is summarised from the cited sources with AI tools used under the supervision and guidance of medical doctors, and checked against those sources; it has not been individually reviewed by an independent clinician.

3. Your responsibilities

  • Use your own professional judgement and follow local policy and the original sources.
  • Do not enter patient-identifiable information anywhere in the app, including notes and searches.
  • Do not misuse the service, attempt to access the administration area or disrupt it.

4. Sources and copyright

Guidelines and papers remain the copyright of their authors, societies and publishers. GastroGuide does not reproduce them: its topics, summaries, checklists, calculators, illustrations and design are written or made for GastroGuide in original wording, and every page cites and links to the original publication. Where exam questions show “What the guideline says”, this is a short, attributed quotation used for education, criticism and review, with a link to the full source. GastroGuide is not affiliated with or endorsed by any society or publisher it cites. Endoscopy atlas images are used under their stated licences; procedure illustrations are original or AI-generated. If you hold rights in any material and want it changed or removed, contact us and we will act promptly.

5. Availability and changes

The service is provided free and “as is”. Content and features may change, and the service may be unavailable at times. We may update these terms; the date above shows the latest version.

6. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, the operator is not liable for decisions made using GastroGuide. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under Irish law.

7. Privacy and contact
