The next time you visit your doctor, don’t be surprised if he pulls out an iPhone.
Third-party developers are now busy with the SDK, and developers are working diligently on all kinds of apps, including ones for the healthcare industry.
The portability and wide range of functionality make the iPhone an ideal tool for doctors in the hospital, paramedics on the scene, firefighters and even police officers on duty. Look for apps to pop up for these professions in the months to come.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see more hospitals and clinics run on a completely Mac network, complete with iPhones for the docs. At my local family doctor, all the staff and doctors run macs, and I’ve often chatted to them about the performance and reliability of the whole system. There have been no complaints, the system works great according to the people I’ve talked to… All staff and especially the doctors seem to love the mac!
