Medicine’s Epic Production

February 8, 2018 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

For many of my colleagues sharing ideas is an epic production. 5000 words, weeks of preparation, peer approval, boss endorsement, pages of references, etc. Sharing ideas, we’ve been taught, is an epic production. We are bred to believe that ideas are shared only when they’re done. We think that value only comes with the finished product. But this is how the ...

Outward Facing Physicians

August 17, 2016 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: 2 minutes

Last month I spoke to a group of physicians about public presence. As serious academics, few of them had any measurable social presence. I’ve done this workshop dozens of times over the past several years and I’m adept at handling digitally naive groups. And during this session the theme was that visibility creates opportunity.

What Doctors Sell Online

February 10, 2015 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: 2 minutes

Not long ago I connected a marketing acquaintance at a national meeting.  He offered to look at my blog and give me some tips.  We sat over coffee and he took me to task for my shortcomings.

Chinese Public Physicians Gone Wild

December 23, 2014 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

When it comes to patient privacy and public platforms, it would appear that some Chinese physicians remain in the dark.  In a bizarre demonstration of clinical conquest, this group mugged for a surgical selfie which fortunately created a backlash.   You can read the full story over at WSJ | China. Apparently the surgeon-in-charge has not read The Public Physician. ... Continue Reading about Chinese Public Physicians Gone Wild

The Public Physician is Public

October 22, 2014 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Public Physician - Practical Wisdom for Life in a Connected, Always-On World, has landed. Here's the problem I'm trying to fix:  While every doctor with a smartphone can publish their ideas to the world, we are completely unprepared to deal with what this all means.  When it comes to public dialog, most of us know what the tools are, few of know the boundaries. ...

Finding Our Voice in the Public Space

February 4, 2014 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

If you have a moment check out this Healthcare Triage video series from Dr. Aaron Carroll.  His thinking, synthesis, translation, and delivery of ideas is something to see.  The Healthcare Triage series and his approach to common issues represents a great example of the public role physicians should play in the information age. Of course, it’s easier said than ... Continue Reading about Finding Our Voice in the Public Space
