Dr Synonymous: Patient, Med Student & Doc Blog Review

 Dr. Synonymous reviews Dr. Fatty Finds Fitness to start the show, followed by The Future of Family Medicine blog which comments on historical physician practice models.  Then, we discuss Dr Kenny Lin's Common Sense Family Doctor which reflects on community health workers and their impact on care.  Dr. Jennifer Middleton relates through The Singing Pen of Dr Jen how to prepare for conferences to do your best, followed by FogBrain writing about the Canadian elections.  A link from FogBrain  leads to Headstrong with Lupus with it's intense symptom list for people with lupus.  Next on Lupus sites is the State Profiles of people with lupus where we review three from Ohio. Then we look at Daily Living with Lupus for a list of autoimmune diseases. We glance at Shrink Rap who moved his site and Jill of All Ttrades who shifted to Girlfriend. After a quick look at 33 Charts with a review of Enchantment by Guy Kawasaki, Dr. Synonymous comments on two publications from the Annals of Family Medicine: Evaluation of AAFP Patient Centered Medical Home National Demonstration Project and Editorial Series on Interrative Approaches to Promoting health and Personalized, High-Value Health Care.  Kurt Stange, MD edits and writes well about Family Medicine.  The second booklet is excellent background reading for fans of Family Medicine.
