Gen X and Y providers continue to push the edge on Facebook
I’m not sure why, but I’m never too surprised when I hear about healthcare professionals who get themselves into hot water using social media platforms such as Facebook. We’ve blogged about it before, and here is yet another article which speaks to the potential pitfalls of casting your personal thoughts, pictures, and stories online for the whole world (including your patients) to see.
To be clear, I’m not phobic when it comes to social media…
Blogging in healthcare: The power of instant communication
Blogging can (and should) be considered a powerful strategy used for marketing, publicity, and even damage control for an organization who’s stakeholders exist online. For small private practices and large healthcare organizations alike, the power of blogging to reach an audience is often underestimated. The article below from Health Leaders Media does a great job of outlining the benefits of a blogging strategy for healthcare providers, as well as some tips on who and how…
In health care, social media requires strategy
Who has time in the day to update Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn? If you’re a doctor, dentist, or physical therapist I bet you don’t…at least I hope you don’t.

Lessons learned about social media from Domino’s Pizza
Try this out…go to Google and type in “Domino’s Pizza.” Do it now, this might not work forever.
Your first result will be Dominos.com – as it should be. Result two might be another legitimate Domino’s page (or sub-page from within their main company domain). Result three (on my computer) is the following: “YouTube – Disgusting Dominos People.” Hmmm…not…
Twitter: Not just for kids anymore
I know, I know…the world is changing fairly fast if sites like MySpace, YouTube, and FaceBook are becoming staples of modern marketing. It wasn’t that long ago that these social media sites were just being borne of the interest of teens and 20-somethings as a way to stay connected and find a date.
Well, when CNN embraced YouTube as a central cog…
Google Alerts: What they are and how they can help your practice
We all know Google, many of us using their search algorithms daily when we “Google” products, services or people online. For business owners, Google has become a research tool, allowing for “quick and dirty” searches of information about themselves and competitors.
As more people are moving to the web to find information about healthcare providers (read my posts about online physician ratings here…
