From Your Doctor

In Brookhaven, MS, The Healthkey Clinic, LLC Provides Patients With Online Educational Health Resources

The HealthKey Clinic, LLC Uses Website to Educate Patients and Brookhaven, Mississippi Community about Asthma, Diabetes, Osteoporosis and other Health Issues

 

Berkeley, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/01/2011 -- The HealthKey Clinic offers practical health information on its Website that supports the needs of its patients and members of the Brookhaven community.

Surveys have shown that U.S. adults frequently search online for health information, but are frustrated by the large volume of information they find from questionable sources. A majority of health consumers state that they would prefer to get that information directly from their own doctor. Unfortunately, a majority of physicians report finding it difficult to provide education during an office visit and most medical practice Websites lack health information.

The HealthKey Clinic, a family practice in Brookhaven, Mississippi, understands the importance of patient education (http://www.vivacare.com) and has taken measure to improve clinical care and patient satisfaction. It now provides its patients with convenient, online access to educational resources on its own practice Website.

The medical professionals of The HealthKey Clinic (http://www.thehealthkeyclinic.com/index.html) join others who use the “From Your Doctor” service from Vivacare to manage their patient education content.
