How can I be a digital doctor? What is a digital patient? How can a hospital or clinic integrate this new type of patient into their practice? Those are some of the questions addressed by the authors.

Not long ago a visit to the doctor would start in the clinic and would end with a paper prescription. Nowadays, it starts with a mobile device, a laptop or another type of gadget. The Dr. Google has a crucial role and is included in the new ways of understanding the different patient stages, being always consulted in real time.

The main question is: How can you, as a healthcare practitioner, be part of this new reality?

Additionally, the authors approach the usage of social media in healthcare and the different tools to start or to improve the presence on those channels, including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok.
