The Doctor is in Your Pocket! Mobile approaches to personal wellbeing with Dr. Laura Crosswell
Do you use mobile apps on your cell phone to monitor your health? Dr. Laura Crosswell, an Assistant Professor of Health Communication, says that “though these apps can help facilitate the communication between a physician and/or medical facility, they also leave a gap.” This, because not all people have access to tech gadgets, computers, or smartphones. Dr. Crosswell recently published a paper in Perspectives in Public Health titled "The doctor in my pocket: examining mobile approaches to personal wellbeing." Dr. Todd Felts, an Assistant Professor of Strategic Communication, and a co-host on this episode, agrees and says that “there is room for improvement in training doctors on how to communicate in a ‘mobile format’ in today’s modern world”. The host and producer for this episode is Issmar Ventura, a graduate student at the Reynolds School of Journalism.
