DrPullen.com is my venture into the on-line medical weblog field where I have yet to find a site I think is user friendly and oriented specifically for the informed patient and authored by an experienced, practicing primary care physician.
I am inspired by kevinMD , a very good medical blog, but written primarily with a physician audience in mind. I hope to use this blog to f0cus more on information useful for patients.
I hope to post commentary about medical conditions that patients may find useful, links to current on-line information I find that may be of interest to many patients, and whatever else I think will be interesting reading and useful information.
To start check out the Resources page to find what I think are some very good on-line resources. Also consider using Exam Room Favorites, a site designed for physicians to use as a home page in their offices to quickly access good information on-line.
This information is designed as just that, not medical advice, not an endorsement of any specific medications, procedures, or practices. Be sure to consult your physician or health care provider for medical advice specific to your needs.

I just found your blog through a link at Kevin MD, and have been browsing the archives. It’s great to see a physician willing to help educate patients. Thank you!
