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.

  • Care of the Cold and Preventing TB (via katinthecupboard) “A well-bred person knows that coughing in another person’s face is poor etiquette and poor hygiene. ….avoid those people! Use a handkerchief. Testing dairy cows for bovine tuberculosis is a safety precaution. Pasteurization is even more important in the battle against TB. Since 1900 the death rate from TB in the US has been cut in half (as of 1937). Surely we may hope for another big reduction with the next generation!” Illustrator J.G. “Cleanliness and Health”By C.E. Turner and Georgie B. Collins1937, Most illustrations by J.G. and some by H.
