Description

Mohamad Mohty and Bipin Savani share a personal view on social media in medicine, in two thousand twenty-four. Doctors once met face to face or in journals to swap knowledge. Platforms now let them share findings, join forces across borders, and reach patients faster than older channels allowed.

The editorial also weighs the downsides of that speed. Short posts can flatten nuance and spark misunderstanding. Constant alerts can break deep work and thin out real relationships. The authors close with best practice tips, starting with managing expectations for oneself and others. Their aim is a balance that keeps the gains of social media while limiting its costs.
