Q: Doctors on the forum

asked by: admin on September 8th, 2008

We're currently in the market for medical experts on eHealth Forum. What's your opinion on this? Where would doctors best serve the community?

Do you think that docs should answer on the live forum or just on the nurse "Ask a Doctor" section?

I definitely think they should be all over if they can.

Thanks for your feedback, Lilly.

I think that we'll run a site-wide vote in the coming weeks....

Any other opinions?

I agree with Lily. The only thing I would add is that the doctors be specialists in the area that they are posting on.

Example. spinal surgeons on the back pain forums.

Cancer specialists on the cancer forums

etc.

I think it would be easier for the Dr. to have one section to go to and answer questions. They don't have a lot of time to browse through the whole forum. Unless, like Fran suggests, they chose their own specialties.

I think that the doctors should have a special section, so that you know to EXPECT a doctor reply...and it should be separate from the other members.
