We accept original scientific research articles, comprehensive reviews, communications, case reports, commentaries, brief reports, viewpoints, clinical experiences, book, book chapter and editorial letters containing new insight into any aspect of Medical, Dental and Allied Health Sciences. The journal is particularly interested and welcomes papers in basic and clinical medical sciences, medical education, public health, hospital and healthcare management.

Peer Review Process

All submitted articles are duly acknowledged. Upon receipt, manuscripts will be reviewed for potential publication with the understanding that they are exclusive to MED PHOENIX and have not been submitted, published, or accepted elsewhere. Editors will initially screen all submissions. Selected manuscripts will then be sent to expert peer reviewers for a blind review process. Articles lacking originality, significant scientific merit, or not following the guidelines appropriately may be rejected. Manuscripts with potential but requiring significant revisions are returned to authors for improvement.

The editorial board retains the final authority to accept or reject articles, considering peer reviews and editorial assessment. The corresponding author will be informed of the review outcome and, if necessary, provided with reviewer comments for revision. Revised manuscripts must be submitted within the specified timeframe.

Accepted articles undergo copyediting for grammar, punctuation, and formatting. Page proofs will be sent to the corresponding author for review and must be returned within 48-72 hours. Failure to meet this deadline may result in publication delays or rejection.
