The Digital Health Revolution - An E-patient Speaks
After being diagnosed with Type I diabetes, Amy Tenderich went to one of the first places many Americans go for health information: the Internet. Unfortunately, Tenderich had a hard time finding useful and relevant health content. Rather than complaining, Tenderich decided to put her considerable writing skills to work and launched DiabetesMine.com.
Today, DiabetesMine is one of the world’s most well-regarded health blogs. In this installment, Tenderich speaks about her experiences writing her blog and what its like to be a bona-fide e-patient. For more on the e-patient phenomenon, please see this interview with Susannah Fox of the Pew Internet & American Life Project
