Healthcare professionals may use social media for a variety of purposes including developing a professional network, increasing personal awareness of news, listening to experts, and/or consulting colleagues. It can also be a tool to disseminate research, market practices, engage in health advocacy, and engage with professional organizations. Increasingly we are seeing health care professionals provide health information to the community and engage with patients on social media platforms. On this episode, Anjuli Gans, MD, a pediatrician at Karabots Pediatric Care Center in West Philadelphia, a CHOP Care Network primary care practice, who is known online for her site Resilient Rascals and its popular Instagram account of the same name with 141,000+ followers, discusses the rules of engagement, how to fight mis/dis-information, and why healthcare providers might want to create a social media account.
