Physicians can add unique value with their detailed context and understanding of clinical systems, help build and develop detailed specifications for technology products, and drive clinical implementation of new technical solutions.
IDEA TO VENTURE:
The Idea: How can you organize care around each patient’s needs using mobile technology? How can you provide patient’s with daily feedback, enhance communication, and drive meaning? Listen as Trishan shares Wellframe’s big vision for the future.

Ignorance: How it Drives Science by Stuart Firestein
WHITE COAT TO BUSINESS SUIT:
After finishing his training in 1997, Jordan joined a private practice in San Francisco with the promise of taking of the practice in a year.

IDEA TO VENTURE:
The Idea: How do you digitally enable a five star experience for patients while decreasing the burden of routine processes in a doctors office? Listen to the big vision of Healthloop to improve the patient experience and unburden the doctor from the mundane.
Failures: Started with a spreadsheet, a single question, and daily patient phone for real-time tracking. Jordan decided to scale this initial experiment and design a software product that would proactively and asynchronously reach out to his patients.
Success: HealthLoop honors the physicians life and respects the patient’s journey through their illness. It provides a voice to happy patients and benchmarks physician performance.
