About
Who's behind My Secret Doctor.
A tiny independent publishing team, one board-certified medical reviewer, and a flat refusal to ask you for your name. This page exists so you know exactly who you are reading.
What we are
My Secret Doctor is an independent, reader-supported men's-health publication. We build one thing well: a 15-question intake that maps to the same questions a real urology consult opens with, plus a private read on what your answers most likely point to.
We are not a clinic, a telehealth service, a supplement company, or a pharmacy. We do not write prescriptions. We do not store your answers on a server. We do not sell your data, because we never collect it.
The team
Dr. Ryan Mitchell, MD
Medical reviewer
Board-certified urologist with 18 years in clinical practice in New York. Reviews every published intake question, every report template, and every change to the report-generation logic before it ships.

How we make money
The 15-question audit is free. The detailed report at the end is a one-time payment. That payment is the entire business model.
- We take no advertising.
- We take no sponsorship from supplement, pharma, or telehealth brands.
- We do not earn affiliate commission on anything we recommend — the report links to category-level options, not specific paid placements.
- If the report isn't useful to you, our refund policy is 48 hours, no questions, no retention dance.
Privacy, in one paragraph
We never ask for your name, email, phone, or any identifier during the audit. Your 15 answers live in your browser's session storage on the device you used and are gone when you close the tab. Payment is handled by Dodo Payments at checkout for the report — that payment data is held by Dodo under their terms, not by us. We do not run third-party analytics, ad pixels, or session-replay tools on this site.
Medical disclaimer
My Secret Doctor is educational. It is not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for evaluation by a licensed clinician. Some symptoms covered by the intake can be signals of conditions that require in-person care — the report flags those explicitly and tells you to see a clinician. If you are in distress or experiencing a medical emergency, contact your local emergency number or a licensed clinician.
