AND SOCIAL MEDIA … THEN
The Council has recently become aware that some physicians have posted
information on Facebook … Council does not believe there is ever a need, or a point,
to posting any information regarding a physician’s professional or clinical activity in
such a fashion, considering the many risks and no discernable benefits.
College of Physicians and Surgeons of New Brunswick
… AND NOW
“While individual physicians are at different stages in their use of social
media, it is a journey all physicians will eventually take. Social media is
becoming so pervasive its importance as a channel to keep current on
medical findings and to confer with colleagues is undeniable.”
Dr. Hartley Stern, CEO, Canadian Medical Protective Association (2014)
