I'm Dr. Joshua Schwimmer, a nephrologist and internal medicine physician in New York City. • Kidney Notes was the first active nephrology blog. (Trivia: Kidney Notes is so old that the National Library of Medicine still uses it as an example of how to formally cite blogs.) • Professionally, you can find me at Kidney.nyc. • Kidney Notes is for educational purposes only, not medical advice.

More Medical Uses of the iPhone: Patient Education Videos from YouTube and Google Video

On Tech Medicine, I've posted a discussion on using the iPhone to display patient education videos from YouTube, Google Videos, and other online video sites.

I've been experimenting with this, and so far it's been very successful.

In future posts, I'll be writing more about switching from the Treo to the iPhone, implementing the Getting Things Done (GTD) system on the iPhone, and using the iPhone to make medical practice easier.
