Medjournal (Portugal)

Medjournal (Portugal) is a Portuguese medical publisher and online news platform based in Carcavelos, on the Lisbon coast. It describes itself as a publisher of medical magazines that makes the best information available to the medical profession, prioritising the quality of content drawn from reference journals worldwide. Its website, medjournal.pt, is organised as a health news portal with distinct sections for human health (Notícias de Saúde Humana) and animal health (Notícias Saúde Animal), alongside a substantial body of opinion articles (Artigos de Opinião) written by practising doctors and specialists. The platform's editorial model combines aggregated and curated news with signed commentary. Its opinion section features named contributors such as Dr. Pedro dos Santos Silva, Dr. Nelson Carvalho, Dr. António Serdoura, Dr. Pedro Carreira, Dr. Luís Figueiredo, Dr. Luís Sousa, Dr. Rita Jorge, Dr. Filipe Antunes, Dr. Pedro Madeira, Dr. Luísa Pereira da Cruz, Dr. Carolina Baptista Simões, Dr. Suzana Calretas, Dr. Tiago Maricoto, Dra. Ana Paiva and Andreia Gomes, writing on topics ranging from obesity and spinal health to chronic kidney disease, rare diseases, liver health and respiratory care. News is further organised into thematic channels, including neuroscience, respiratory diseases and cardiovascular diseases, each aggregating the latest items in that specialty. Access to Medjournal's publications is offered free of charge to the medical class, subject to registration. The site invites all doctors who wish to access its publications at no cost to register, positioning the brand as a service to the Portuguese medical community rather than a general-consumer outlet. Contact details published on the site include a Portuguese mobile telephone number, an email address (geral@medjournal.pt) and a postal address at Rua Bernardo Costa nº127, 1º esquerdo, 2775-809 Carcavelos. The site also publishes privacy, cookie and terms policies and links to the Portuguese complaints book (Livro de Reclamações) and dispute resolution mechanisms, reflecting Portuguese consumer-protection requirements. Medjournal operates in the Portuguese-language market and its content is overwhelmingly focused on Portugal's health system, medical societies and public-health campaigns — for example coverage of the SNS (Serviço Nacional de Saúde), the Ordem dos Psicólogos Portugueses, the Sociedade Portuguesa de Pneumologia and the Fundação Portuguesa de Cardiologia. Its revenue model, ownership and corporate structure are not disclosed in the available evidence, and no founding date or founder is documented there. Wikidata records the entity simply as a company in Carcavelos, Portugal.

The available evidence does not document Medjournal's founding date, founders or corporate history in detail. What can be established is that Medjournal (Portugal) operates as a Portuguese medical publisher and online news platform based in Carcavelos, Portugal, and that Wikidata records it as a company in that town. Its website presents it as an 'editora de revistas médicas' — a publisher of medical magazines — that makes the best information available to the medical profession while privileging the quality of content from reference journals worldwide. Over time the platform has built out a structured editorial architecture. The homepage carries a rolling feed of human-health news and opinion pieces, with a parallel animal-health news section. Thematic channels have been created for specialties such as neuroscience, respiratory diseases and cardiovascular diseases, each collecting the latest items in that field. A registration system gates free access to the publications for members of the medical profession, and the site publishes the standard Portuguese legal and consumer-protection pages (privacy policy, cookie policy, terms and conditions, complaints book and dispute-resolution links). The content itself reflects the Portuguese medical landscape: coverage of national legislation such as Lei n.º 51/2025 and the ACSS, medical societies including the Sociedade Portuguesa de Pneumologia and the Ordem dos Psicólogos Portugueses, patient associations such as Pulmonale and the Associação Protectora dos Diabéticos de Portugal, and recurring public-health awareness days (World Obesity Day, World Kidney Day, World Rare Disease Day, World Patient Day, World Physical Activity Day). Opinion contributors are named practising doctors writing on clinical and public-health themes. The site's footer carries a 2024 copyright notice, indicating that the platform was active and publishing under the Medjournal name by that year. No ownership, funding, acquisition or leadership changes are documented in the supplied evidence.
