For the past few months, we've been working hard to improve our Find a Doctor page.
And this week, we're debuting the result: an even more visually attractive and interactive resource to connect patients to low-carb doctors, locally or remotely.
Quickly find one of 400+ doctors, searchable by location, speciality, and see if they offer remote consultations.
As a new feature, each individual doctor we list also has their own page with a unique URL. This will enable them to share their page with their network or, if they like, provide us with information to update their page with more details about their research or practice.
As medical director of Diet Doctor, I am really proud of this growing list of practitioners. It shows the steady increase in the global community of clinicians who are committed to helping patients adopt a nutritional approach to reverse diabetes and metabolic syndrome, lose weight, and improve their general health.
It is visual proof, too, that low-carb medicine is becoming an ever-more legitimate standard of care. Every dot on the map represents likely hundreds of patients who are being helped by a clinician comfortable with low-carb nutrition.
If you are a clinician with prescribing privileges in your jurisdiction, we invite you to send an email to anne.mullens@dietdoctor.com. She will forward you a link to an online form to fill out.
Just to clarify how the listing process works: We check the credentials and do a background search for everyone who applies to be listed, and we never list any clinician without his or her expressed consent.
In the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are also highlighting the increasing number of practitioners seeing patients through remote consultations. We appreciate how this allows more people to improve their health, potentially reducing the risk of serious complications of the virus, all while keeping social distancing practices in place.
We hope before long, the map will feature thousands of doctors worldwide. Come join us and spread the word.
Thanks for reading,
Dr. Bret Scher, MD FACC
