Medical Doctors Media
Flying from London to New York for approximately 8 hours is quite challenging. But flying in an airplane full of Medical Doctors for 8 hours adds a whole new level of weirdness in travel conversations. Who can relax and enjoy a neverending flight when most of the talks have words like “open heart surgery” or “brain trauma” or “clinical data” or “terminal stage cancer”?… Medical Doctors belong to a tribe where words like “MRI” or “EMR” are so common as “sugar” or “milk” for the rest of the human race.
Doctors Talk
Believe it or not, Doctors love to talk and enjoy the company of their friends. They are also people with the same need for communication like everyone else on the planet. They also like to use social media and share their opinion on about every topic. But… here it comes… they are not familiar with the rules of the digital game.
So, when they play with social media, most of their posts could send a lot of us in the restroom with a stomach ache. Come on… who can watch an open belly with dozens of surgical equipment around? Or a knee surgery? …or brain surgery? Please, give us a break! When we are scrolling down on social media and medical posts appear with no warning, it can really ruin your day.
But Medical Doctors have no intention to make us feel uncomfortable. What is normal for a Doctor, could be flagged inappropriate for most people. So, social media and digital marketing for Healthcare Providers and Doctors, need a delicate and more sophisticated approach.
