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.

    This is an excellent start.

    I spent the past two days at an event called Velocity in Grand Rapids at a salon discussing the future of cities. There were 40 or so other participants including Zach Frechette, the editor in chief at GOOD Magazine, Tina Roth-Eisenberg (swissmiss), and lots of other really talented thinkers.

    One of the major themes was “government as platform, partner, and enabler” of a decentralized, locally connected neighborhood full of empowered individuals.

    In 20 years, millenials and Gen Xers will be making all decisions in the government. Government will be different. We don’t put up with antiquities.
