HOW SOCIAL NETWORKS BENEFIT PHYSICIANS

As a physician, being up-to-date on today’s medical news is essential; but
remaining on the cutting-edge of the medical world is not easy. A social network
for doctors can help empower physicians to achieve their personal and
professional goals, while having fun and making meaningful connections with
others. 

Sermo is the only dedicated social network for doctors in the world—bringing
together more than 1,000,000 triple-verified physicians, who are looking for and
sharing the latest medical insights. By joining Sermo, you can improve your
medical practice and grow your professional network.



Sermo gives you access to the latest medical news so you can read, collaborate,
and discuss with your fellow professionals. The easy-to-use platform provides
access to exclusive content, while helping you keep a pulse on the latest
happenings in the medical world.

The popularity of social media by physicians had been steadily and consistently
growing; but in 2020—as COVID-19 completely changed the way the world
communicated—the number of physicians engaging in social media grew
exponentially. Sermo experienced an 83% increase in global unique logins on its
platform alone—and a 24% increase in time spent on the site.

When physicians were asked to compare physician-only social platforms against
general social media, they said physician-only platforms offered more
credibility, security, privacy, value of information, and allowed a better
connectivity with peers.

“Sermo is an excellent tool for connecting colleagues and often helps us share
our experiences and clarify diagnostic and therapeutic doubts.” —Sermo Member,
Orthopedic Surgeon

The top 3 reasons physicians use social media professionally across all markets
are:

 1. Staying up to date on medical news.
 2. Connecting with peers.
 3. Sharing knowledge. 

There’s a reason that Sermo is the number one social network for doctors, and
rapidly growing. The platform is designed to help you be the best physician you
can be, by providing access to thousands of patient cases and the largest drug
ratings database in the world—featuring over 1 million ratings! With Sermo, you
can give your patients a superior standard of care, while growing your
professional network and taking your practice to the next level.


DISCOVER THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY THAT EMPOWERS TODAY’S PHYSICIANS

Sermo is the only physician networking platform exclusively for doctors. Sermo
is unique in that it brings together all the aspects and functionality of
traditional social media, and combines it with medical education. So, what can

SERMO’S UNIQUE VERIFICATION PROCESS 

Every physician who signs up with Sermo is required to present evidence of their
medical credentials.

This may include a picture of a badge from their place of employment or a copy
of their medical license and/or qualifications that contain a photo.

Sermo’s verification of new member credentials uses a combination of humans,
data and technology to ensure every member is a verified physician while making
the process as easy as possible for new members. 

IDENTIFICATION 

The next step in the process is to check that the physician who is registering
matches up with their submitted credentials.

Sermo requires a type of photo ID upon registration, such as a driving license
or a passport.

Registration is fast, but this extra step ensures that this platform contains
information submitted exclusively by real, practicing physicians.

CONFIRMATION 

For physician networking that cares about the strength and validity of its
community, Sermo makes a final check against a database to confirm the member is
not already a member or banned from the site for previous “bad behavior.”

Not only is this social network for doctors designed to be an educational
place—it is also designed to be a safe place.

Pass these three steps—in just a few minutes—and, as a fully-fledged member, you
are ready to start interacting with your peers. 

Unlike other medical networking options, Sermo has created a rigorous code of
conduct to ensure that the quality of community content and interaction remains
high.

You can socialize anonymously or build your personal profile. However you want
to connect, Sermo maintains the integrity of this unique doctors networking
platform through our credential-checking verification process.
