About
Social Medicine
Ever since the development of the internet approximately 35 years ago, people have been experimenting with and intrigued by the educational value and potential of the world wide web. Such promise has been unrestricted in the wide array of fields and genres it encompasses, and medicine and health has been no exception. Web surfers are probably now “Googling” their symptoms as the first step in gaining insight into their health condition, perhaps even before visiting a health physician.
Dr.Discuss has rapidly gained interest across social networks as a medical community aimed at exploring the potential uses of social media in the field of medicine. With thousand of followers on Facebook and Twitter and growing daily, we aim to provide an interesting and valuable community where members and guests can learn, share, and most importantly, discuss health information.
