️ Medicine Monologues
A SoMeDocs Series by Dr. Dana Corriel
Hi everyone, this is Dr. Dana Corriel and I am creating a Medicine Monologue.
This episode is going to discuss videos, and why physicians should consider creating video content that features themselves.
We all know that the online world and social media are powerful tools for connecting — with both colleagues and patients. It’s a quick and effective way to communicate and, in the long run, it can save us a lot of time.
There are so many ways to use video to position yourself as an expert in your field. For example:
- You might be starting a private practice in your local area and want to establish yourself as a thought leader.
- You could be working within a group practice or hospital and want to create educational content for patients.
In either case, video can be an incredible tool.
Rather than handing patients impersonal brochures after their visit — about a new diagnosis or prescribed medication — you can direct them to personalized videos you’ve created. These videos are from you, in your voice, from your perspective. That alone creates a more meaningful experience for the patient and helps build trust.
It also saves valuable time during visits. Instead of spending 20 extra minutes discussing side effects, direct them to a video you’ve already made that walks them through it.
When patients can continue learning from you outside the exam room, they feel more connected. There’s continuity of care — they’re still seeing you, even from the comfort of their own home.
Creating a video series is a powerful way to build your expertise and thought leadership. And here’s the thing — you don’t need to be a filmmaker to do it. You just need the motivation to make a difference.
That’s where SoMeDocs comes in.
One of our newest offerings is helping physicians like you build impactful video series. You don’t have to be tech-savvy. We walk you through the process, help record and edit, and create a polished final product.
Even better, we’ll feature your series in our dedicated “series” section — which is like Netflix for healthcare. It’s a beautifully designed space that showcases different series relevant to health and healthcare. Your videos appear alongside others, and we help circulate them to our audience.
You can get creative. Host a talk show. Do a solo monologue. Lead a panel. At SoMeDocs, we’ve created everything from interview-style shows with rotating guests, to roundtable discussions, to single-expert formats.
You don’t need to figure it out alone. We provide the structure, the virtual stage, the editing, and even the marketing support.
The best part? You can also repurpose video content into a podcast. Turn your MP4 into an MP3 and upload it. Just like that, you have another distribution channel.
With SoMeDocs, we handle the tech, help you shape your vision, and deliver high-quality, branded content you own and can use however you want — on your website, social media, YouTube, and more.
So if you’re ready to amplify your voice, establish your expertise, and build meaningful content — reach out at somedocs.com. I’m Dr. Dana Corriel, the physician behind SoMeDocs. I built this venture to help doctors become the experts online that they already are in real life.
