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.

  • How much longer is the average person/business in America going to accept paying double what healthcare should cost? Because in just about 6 more years, the cost of health insurance (split between you and your employer) will consume 40% of your pre-tax income. I’m not being an absurd alarmist. I’m being a realist basing this question on the rise of the cost of health insurance in the past 8 years and the projections for the next 6 years. It’s happening. And I’m happy to hear that the individual is now feeling the pinch.
