Technological advances are all about making us work better or smarter. One recent US launch is Figure1 which is an image sharing app for doctors. This allows doctors to share important information and follow cases all within a secure internet site that protects patient confidentiality.
The question, though, is always whether technology can make us redundant. Also from the US is PocketDerm, a teledermatology consultation programme developed by two dermatologists to provide customised skincare advice for acne sufferers without them even having to make an appointment.
Patients can sign up to the app and upload photos of their acne problem where their acne treatment is customised and shipped directly to the patient.

What’s a starter website package? These websites are small, off-the-peg websites that get you started without having to outlay the cost of a bespoke, all-singing, all-dancing website that can cost you thousands of pounds.
The great thing about these websites are that they are flexible and can grow with you. We build our starter websites on WordPress which has a fantastic Content Management System. This means that you can add to your website either through pages or posts, increasing and strengthening your online presence.
Then, at any point, you can give your website a new look or revamp and you’ve not lost any of the great online work you’ve done.
Brief:Mr Amit Sinha is a general surgeon with a special interest in Laparoscopic and Minimal Access Surgery. He works mainly in the NHS, but was keen to start building his private practice. At this stage he did not want – or need – a purpose-built website so opted for our Starter Website Package.
Our editorial team wrote the content for the website – maybe not one of their most pleasant jobs as it was mainly about the condition piles and its treatment but it was certainly informative. As the build progressed, Mr Sinha was keen to add a few flourishes to his website so opted to have our designer to create images and sliders to give it a polished feel.
We also added a blog as Mr Sinha is keen – work permitting – to start adding to his website with regular blog posts. We recommend all our clients start interacting with their website in this way, however we are aware that time is tight and many of our clients opt for one of our ongoing content package, either as soon as they go live or at some point down the road.
All our editorial team have a great deal of specialist knowledge and all our material is checked by our Editorial Director, copyscaped and optimised before it goes up to ensure it’s working as hard as possible for you.
The finished product:To see how the website turned out – and some particularly gruesome pictures! – please click here.
