I am a physician with two major areas of work/focus:
one: healthcare social media; using twitter as a versatile platform for the communication of science and technology as related to health/healthcare, and for health related conference / event curation
two: the field of aging: especially maintaining physical mobility, regardless of ability, and to that end, developing technological upgrades to the walker frame mobility aid (& educational tools to accompany same).
I am available to consult on issues related to professional Twitter. Contact me through my website (here). More on my professional background can be found on LinkedIn.
Please peruse the menu above.
Found our chat on Twitter very interesting so will read up more on you today, here in UK I believe there is a real desire to make the doctor/patient relationship more level, long way to go but 1st steps definitely being taken

Thank you John, I also enjoyed our conversation. I agree that the tide is finally turning as both patients and physicians realize that a more level playing field and shared decision making are key to optimal outcomes. IMO, a mutually open, comfortable, honest, informative, and trustworthy patient-physician relationship is the lynchpin for such outcomes.

Agreed. I finally have a mutual respect with my PCP team not to push statins on me given the BMJ 2015 Meta-analysis found less than a 6 day increase of lifespan on average.
