The internet has made a huge change in the way physicians practice. When I first began to practice, patient referrals came as word of mouth from the community and colleagues recommendations from the same  area. It was the legendary hanging up your shingle.

Now the shingle is the internet and web pages that have a global reach. I regularly see patients not only from the towns in  Tampa Bay, including Clearwater, Tarpon Brings, New Port Richy and all of Pasco county and Hudson, but across the water including Tampa, Brandon, Bradenton and Sarasota, and even further south; Venice, Cape Corral and Ft Meyers.  Many come from Orlando and Winter Park and the East Coast, including the Daytona area and Ft Pierce. I am now in the habit of asking how far did the patient have to drive to get to the office.
