Social Media -Why It is Useful for Physicians

Just now, I participated in a 5K run to support The NASPGHAN Foundation.  My suggestion is to move this to a Saturday or Sunday next year to allow more support from the community at large.  That being said, I was pleased to be able to participate in this inaugural race.

Later today, I am giving a talk at our national pediatric gastroenterology meeting on social media.  On one of my first slides, I disclose that I have no financial conflicts and that I am not an expert on social media. The truth is that most teenagers are much more knowledgeable about social media than I am.  Perhaps the perspective that I lend to this area is that I have some experience on how social media can be helpful for physicians.

If you have some suggestions, let me know soon.
