On this podcast, I found myself answering questions about Social Content Solutions for Healthcare with Dr. Mike Sevilla. One of my early podcast guests, Mike Sevilla, is a dedicated Family Practice Physician, and social media early adopter. We talked about our convention travels, have a debate about SnapChat and explore the challenges of social media for the small healthcare practice. Mike was interested in learning more about the Get Social Health Academy, the monthly subscription service Social Content Solutions and the Membership site scheduled to launch early this summer. Give a listen to the podcast or drop in at the timestamps below.
