Asklepios - the site that brings Candian Doctors together
![]()
Plank is pleased to have teamed up with the Canadian Medical Association in order to bring Candian doctors together in a unique, easy to use social networking community, Asklepios. Named after the Greek god of medicine and healing, Asklepios is the latest innovative web-based solution designed by the CMA to improve physicians' practices, and Plank was thrilled to be part of it.
Designed and developed by Plank and the CMA exclusively for Canadian doctors, Asklepios functions as a secure physician community facilitating contact between experts and peers alike, irrespective of geographic location or practice specialty. "Asklepios is an online doctors' community," said Dr. Brian Day, President of the CMA. "It helps connect physicians with their colleagues across the country, facilitates the sharing of best practices, and fosters a deeper sense of professional affiliation."
Asklepios is bilingual and easy to use with a simple and intuitive interface. It offers physicians a personalized profile page and access to groups and discussions, and live chat. Other applications will be rolled-out on an ongoing basis, drawing from the experience and feedback of physicians using it. Plank's expandable technology base will make additions of new functions a breeze.
So be sure to check out the site. Of course, if you aren't a doctor, you won't be able to do much! But trust us, it's a great site.
