It is a reality that more and more doctors have a greater presence on social networks. In recent years, the Internet has positioned itself as a powerful tool for all sectors and social networks are used both personally and professionally.
Relationship of doctors and the Internet
Doctoralia is a leading platform that connects healthcare professionals with patients. A couple of years ago he carried out a study in which 10,013 doctors from Spain, Brazil, Italy, Mexico and Poland participated. The objective of this study was none other than to find out their habits regarding the Internet and how they use it.
From Doctoralia They were asked how often they search for health topics on the Internet and 40 percent of Mexican doctors responded annually and 26 percent do so monthly. The most assiduous to search for information on the Internet are Brazilian health professionals, since 28 percent stated that they do so on a daily basis.
Likewise, to carry out this study, they were asked what type of Internet pages they search for health topics. In Mexico, 22% of doctors claimed to visit platforms such as Doctoralia and 18% favor social networks, being the country that uses them the most. Although Poland declared to be the largest user of health platforms, with 32%.
Most used social networks
Another topic that was considered for the study was communication with physicians. They were asked about which social networks health professionals should have a presence in the future. 30 percent of Mexicans answered, without a doubt, that on Facebook and 24 percent opted for Instagram, leaving YouTube in third place, with 21%.
With some of this data, it is clear that online health services were already on the rise and that the pandemic came to accelerate. There are more and more digital patients of all ages, while doctors look to these tools for greater visibility.
