Four Reasons Doctors Worry About Social Media

Four Reasons Doctors Worry About Social Media | Nursing Education | Scoop.it
Rather than isolating doctors, emerging technologies promise to be fundamentally enabling, allowing doctors to redefine and strengthen their relationships -- with patients and with colleagues. The result: a new sense of connection and meaning.

Via Alex Butler
David Yates's curator insight, April 14, 12:41 PM

Finally. The relationship between patients and their Doctors can transform communications and build relationships, leading to much more transparency, innovation, education and preventive treatments. Ideally and hopefully, the realm of social media can trigger a paradigm shift wherein dostors, colleagues and patients can address causes of illnesses and mitigate them rather than treat symptoms.
