DID A PHYSICIAN WRITE THIS?

If medical articles aren't written and signed by qualified medical experts, they should be deleted. The wrong information could be extremely harmful. People that are not M.D.'s and PhD's in medicine have no business writing articles about something on which they have little real expert knowledge. Wiki pseudo experts don't cut it. 75.217.247.203 (talk) 22:34, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, so glad you're not in charge of Wikipedia policy, because I'd actually like a less technical explanation of this.. where do they stick the catheter? --72.211.147.156 (talk) 00:53, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a gold standard?

The first paragraph says "Esophageal pH monitoring is the current gold standard for diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).", but then the "Clinical application" section says "Although there remains no gold standard for the diagnosis of GERD,...". Seems like mixed messages. ThePedanticPrick (talk) 19:21, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
