You are a busy doctor, so why should you take
the time and trouble of setting up your own website?
Firstly, your website lets you provide
value-added services for your existing and new patients, by providing
details as to the timings of the clinic and how to get to the clinic. It
also allows you to answer routine patient’s queries by email. Patients
are thirsty for information about their illness, and many will use the
Net to find information. However, most patients would much rather get
information from their own doctor, and if you provide this information
on your website, your patients know they can trust it.
However, the internet is
a very valuable means of educating patients, and doctors need to be in
the forefront of providing reliable information to their patients. After
all, if you don’t take responsibility for educating patients, then who
will?
You can “refer” patients to your website at the end of the consultation,
so they can educate themselves. Patients appreciate this and word of
mouth will help you get more patients.
The future of medical
care is e-healthcare, with the promise of online medical records, online
pharmacies, telemedicine, patient education, and an ever-expanding list
of exciting opportunities.
Putting up a website
has become very easy, and you can get your first webpage at
