Health IT and the Doctor-Patient Relationship
This is the last in our series of interviews with Dr. Nanette Nuessle. In this interview, we discussed the technologies Dr. Nuessle uses as a concierge physician. This discussion evolved into an discourse over whether healthcare technology helps or hinders the important relationship between patients and physicians.
Dr. Nuessle also wanted for me to recommend the book Practicing Excellence by Stephen Beesen to the readers of the Perficient Health IT blog. This book was recommended to her by a Chief Medical Officer, and she promises it will transform your view of healthcare. If you have already read this book, then I welcome your comments below.
Dr. Nuessle is a pediatrician and owner of Fireside Pediatrics, which is a concierge pediatric practice in Kansas City, Kansas. Dr. Nuessle has 17 years experience in General Pediatrics, and 7 years experience in Medical Genetics. Dr. Nuessle is also active in social media. You can find her on Twitter as @DrNanN or on her blog entitled Dr. Nan’s Fireside Chat where she provides healthcare advice to those caring for children. You can learn more about Fireside Pediatrics at FiresidePediatrics.com. Many thanks to Dr. Nuessle for her great insight into how healthcare technology is used every day in the delivery of healthcare!
