Abstract

Curbside consultations are as old as our medical profession. Professional communication and interaction around best patient care is valuable, educational, and necessary. As consultants, we have special knowledge about how to manage people with digestive disorders and often are willing to share our expertise. We also understand that the days of leisurely lunch discussions in the “Doctor’s Dining Room” are long gone. Nowadays, even my wife tunes me out if my sentences exceed 140 characters. In this age of rapid electronic communication, Dr Lin and colleagues remind us of some critical legal and professional parameters related to curbside consultations. I hope you enjoy this month’s “Road Ahead” column.
