Dr. Jay Parkinson, a Brooklyn-based doctor is using the internet in innovative ways to treat patients. He communicates with patients via IM, textmessaging and video chat. Most of his patients are uninsured and he's using technology to cut overhead and keep medical fees low. However is he just a boutique doctor for affluent urbanites or could his medical model assist other uninsured New Yorkers?

This is totally interesting, I'd love to get more of an in-depth understanding of what this doctor in Williamsburg is really doing for his patients, and the juxtaposition of the dispossessed in other parts of NY, for instance, Harlem. Great beginning, I'd love to see more of these filmmakers' works!

It a great topic and a well produced pod. I would like to hear more about the challenges the doctor faces and to see a few interviews with people who use this type of service. Thanks for uploading and Green Light!
