HealthCare Social Media Review #3: The digital doctor’s edition

Here are some highlights from this week's HealthCare Social Media Review:

• "Healthcare social media is a waste of time for most doctors" by Dike Drummond This is worth a read for everyone as a sanity check; if you're going to use social media, at least make sure you know why - and the reason shouldn't be "because everyone else seems to be."
• "Giving the voiceless a voice using social media, family violence prevention, and a walk with Brigid McCaw, MD" Ted Eytan touches on an important subject: The fact that social media is enabling new voices to emerge in the health care system—voices that include both patients and doctors.
• "Physician thought leaders in the digital age." Bryan Vartabedian writes a great piece on the future thought-leading MDs.
