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.

  • NYC Health Insurance Link

    NYC launched a web app today that helps you find the health insurance plans offered in NYC for both individuals and small business.

    This is a good start that eliminates some of the guesswork. However, it still looks and acts like something designed by the government.

    Why can’t government agencies have taste? Did they ever think about making something beautiful with an easy, pleasurable user experience? Obama did…and look where that got him.

    Let’s compare Obama’s Whitehouse.gov vs. the Department of Health and Human Services.

    Which one do you have more confidence in?
