The site had PM's at one time, for paying members, but the premium memberships were discontinued. They also had free classified want ads for medical purposes, but this resulted in many scam alerts, ripoff complaints, slanderous messages and other problems. I had a gold membership, communicated with some people, and didn't have any problems for the brief time I participated.

There are other ways for people here to get in touch with each other off-site, if they put their minds to it.
