Patient Resource Center

This section provides valuable health information resources for patients. This is a value-added service provided by the practice and is customized to your patient population. Healthcare consumers increasingly want their healthcare providers to advise them on authoritative health information sources—the Patient Resource Center directly addresses this need.

This site section contains links to the websites of credible medical organizations, accompanied by a short description. Each Patient Resource Center is customized to your patient population.

We have reviewed hundreds of organizations in conjunction with clinicians to select the "best of the best" among sources of clinical information for each specialty. Clients can add or delete organizations from their list of resources.

Your First Visit

This section contains a checklist of information that patients should have with them on their first visit to the practice. The information answers common questions from first-time patients.

Location and Directions

This section provides a detailed map, plus directions to the practice.

Contact Us

Clients can choose an option for patients to e-mail the practice via a form—an efficient communication tool for questions and comments. The form instructs patients to use it for non-clinical questions only.

If the client does not want an e-mail option, the phone number for the practice will be listed, along with any other information about contacting the practice.

Our Process

The Medical Design Concepts process for developing client websites is straightforward:

• MDC sends an easy-to-complete Content Collection Document to the client to collect all necessary information. This is completed by the client and returned to MDC, along with all source material.
• MDC sends the client a Scope of Work which defines the work to be completed and the total cost. MDC commences site development once client agrees with the Scope, and when all source material is received. 
• MDC develops a draft site for review by the client.
• MDC makes requested changes and the client site is finalized.
• Once final, a domain name (e.g., www.mainstreetpeds.com ) is selected for the site and the site is launched.

MDC works quickly to complete client sites, and the entire process requires a minimal amount of time from your medical practice.
