The Value of Point-of-Care Media Differs by Patient Group/Physician Specialty
The type of doctor or specialist you visit may affect the media you value in the doctor’s office.
Above, you’ll find a comparison of those who value doctors and various point-of-care media (magazines, TV and other information sources found in the doctors’ offices) in relationship to the specialty the patient has seen from data in the 2013 MARS OTC/DTC Study.
When compared to all patient groups, hematologist patients prefer magazines whereas patients seeing their endocrinologist and nutritionist index very high on TV programs. Ads/brochures/pamphlets/wallboards are the preferred medium in the psychologist/therapists office.
