Let’s face it, email is here to stay. It’s in colleges and universities, America’s largest and smallest corporations. It allows us to communicate quickly and efficiently with the added benefit of being able to review our words before they travel to our intended recipient.
But is email coming to a doctor’s office near you? Probably not, according to an article by the Associated Press.
According to the story: “(Suzanne) Kreuziger’s experience is shared by most Americans: They want the convenience of e-mail for non-urgent medical issues, but fewer than a third of U.S. doctors use e-mail to communicate with patients, according to recent physician surveys.”
Kreuziger is a nurse who uses email for just about everything in life EXCEPT emailing her doctor(s).
