Micro-Medical Practice – Dr. Welby Goes High Tech

From the Washington Post:

After several years in a traditional suburban group practice that blended pediatrics and family medicine, (Dr. Ramona) Seidel quit to start her own micro-practice in Annapolis: a low-overhead, high-tech office that gives her more control over how she treats patients and more time to spend with them. She’s happier. Her patients are happier. And she’s pretty convinced they are healthier having a physician who knows them well.

I’d like to think what we are seeing here is a movement towards a more green, entrepreneurial, technology-savvy form of medical practice that brings back some corners of the health care delivery system to a more human level.
