Mdsconnect.net and J. Knipper and Company Announce Exclusive Partnership

The trend of physician social and professional networks is well underway and with the launch of new sites that offer all of the tools and resources physicians need in one place. This trend shall continue. With the launch of these new sites and current partnership developments, the future of physician social and professional networking has moved from conversing with colleagues to finding solutions to practice management problems, having tools and resources to provide better clinical care as well as to help grow a practice.

"As a physician, I am starved for time. Social networking sites allow me to get the medical information I need quickly and efficiently. When it's not always convenient to pick up the phone to contact a colleague or a pharmaceutical sales representative, I can now go online to chat with a colleague or request pharmaceutical samples. This allows me to use my time more efficiently and still get the answers I need. The developments that are continually being made in this arena are going to move beyond social networking and become the medium that physicians turn to in the future," said Dr. Helen Torok.

Through our partnership with J. Knipper and Co. we are excited to now offer MySampleCloset.com^®, a completely paperless online method of requesting pharmaceutical samples in the MD Sample Center section of MDsConnect.net. Physicians can access the website at their convenience, receive real-time order verification as well as check the status of current and past orders, leave comments and keep track of preferences. These sites provide physicians with the opportunity to grow their practice by providing tools and resources that offer practical solutions. This will become the medium that physician's turn to in the future to save time and get the answers they need in real time.
