Did you know there’s a good chance your doctor is sharing casework and referrals about you over such a network, and they don’t really want you there getting in the way, either.

The network’s called Doximity, and it claims that 4 out of 10 doctors in the U.S. now uses it to meet other doctors, share coursework, and brush up on tough cases or recent news from trade journals. And doctors are chatty, the 300,000 who have signed up to date sharing about 20,000 messages each day.
