These lists of medical specialties include just a handful of specific sites that they've chosen, and also link to the corresponding Hardin MD specialty page. They are thus giving their users the idea that they don't pretend to present a complete list of sites in the specialty, and that if that's desired, the user should consult the comprehensive lists in the Hardin MD. These links are especially noteworthy because they follow a pattern that we think is reasonable, that we'd like to encourage more, namely utilizing the comprehensive specialty lists in the Hardin MD instead of having every site trying to keep its own lists!
