Social Media: a Physician’s Perspective

PWP’s scare PCP’sSome wish the Internet would just go awayOthers know its important – but don’t know

why or how (for them)Patients are empoweredSocial media may put your docs over the edge

Our jobs = Educate first; propose second (plus 9 other ideas to remember)

Psychological Effect of Social Media CommunicationsTraditional Communications

Social Media-Enhanced Communications

Face-to-face in office only Meet in office only Occasionally communicate during

business hours via phone

Tools are usually not available to patient and physician to monitor conditions

Time spent waiting for appointments, in waiting rooms, or in automated phone trees.

Virtual “face-to-face” Opportunity to communicate 24/7

with medical professionals Meeting in a secured environment Ability to enable “mobility” for those

with physical disabilities Ability to consult around the world Patients engage in their

ongoing maintenance and treatments

Find a Doc

Twitter Twitter Becoming Essential Tool for Docs Twitter will soon be an essential tool for medical practices according to a poll conducted by Case Western

University, an independent research university in Cleveland. Fifty-nine percent of those who participated in the poll voted “yes” that Twitter would become an integral

part of the way doctors communicate with patients and other medical professionals. Although more doctors may be using the service, they are not necessarily using it to give patients advice. “I was a clinical assistant professor of medicine at CWRU until 2008, and I think it is great that the

university community shows an active interest in social media services such as Twitter... That said, I am yet to ask medical questions on Twitter and generally do not answer clinical queries from patients there,” said Ves Dimov, MD, founder of ClinicalCases.org, an online case-based curriculum of clinical medicine, in a blog.

Doctors don’t generally use Twitter to give medical advice but to guide the public to reputable sources of information or share breaking medical news, said Kevin Pho, MD, in a post on his medical blog, KevinMD.com

Pho conducted a similar poll in Aug. 2009, asking medical professionals how they used Twitter. He found that about 45 percent did not use the service at all. Thirty-six percent said they used it to share and keep up with news and information and only 1.5 percent said they used it to connect with patients.
