After completing a residency in pediatrics and one in preventive medicine at Johns Hopkins, I started a practice for my neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn in September 2007. People would visit my website; see my Google calendar; choose a time and input their symptoms; my iphone would alert me; I would make a house call; they'd pay me via Paypal; and we'd follow up by email, IM, videochat, or in person.

Fast Company calls me The Doctor of the Future. I've got a design and consulting firm called The Future Well. Read more about me here.

  • A real-time map view on almost all cities around the world that offer bike hire schemes. Currently in London, as of 37 seconds ago: 169 Bikes in use638 is the highest so far today4037 bikes currently available in docks  The future of the internet will be about matching up local supply and demand in real time. Zipcar is doing it for cars. Barclays is doing it for bikes in London. ZocDoc is doing it for doctors in America. I think this is only the beginning. And none of this would be possible if it weren’t for these schemes opening up their data.
