Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media Coming to New York

In addition to our annual Social Media Summit in October, produced in collaboration with  Ragan Communications (details coming soon), the Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media is co-producing another major social media conference in 2012, Connecting Health Care & Social Media.

This one will be held at Roosevelt Hospital, 1000 Tenth Avenue (at 59th Street), in New York City May 17-18, 2012 and we’re producing it with NYC Health Business Leaders and Continuum Health Partners.

Dr. Farris Timimi and I will be presenting on Mayo Clinic’s social media experience and philosophy, and we’ll be joined by others with helpful insights to share (some of whom are members of our External Advisory Board), including:

• Ed Bennett, University of Maryland Medical Center
• Chris Boyer, Inova Health System
• Margaret Fontana, Meridian Health Care
• Kathleen Kearns, Continuum Health Partners
• Dr. Howard Luks, University Orthopedics PC
• Dr. Katie Malbon, Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center
• Dr. Mike Sevilla, Family Medicine physician and blogger
