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.

  • I visited the wonderful Brooklyn Flea yesterday and came across this orchidometer from the 1960s. The one we used back in my pediatric training was wood. It even came with a handy leather carrying case! So, of course I had to add it to my growing collection of medical antiquities. orchidometer  or·chi·dom·e·ter (ôr’kĭ-dŏm’ĭ-tər): a medical instrument used to measure the volume of the testicles to track testicular development in children
