In this episode, we talk with Dr. David Grew, an entrepreneur, practicing radiation oncologist, and founder of the PRIMR, the first doctor created patient education platform.
David is bringing digital innovation and business-savvy to a field not typically associated with productizing knowledge and sharing it from doctor to patient. Traditionally, doctors meet with patients and explain concepts one-on-one, repeating themselves thousands of times during their career.
David is changing that with PRIMR – and in the process improving life for doctors and patients, who now absorb and better retain information they learn from their physicians.
If you're in an industry where that's not known for bottom-up innovation, this is the UnStuck episode for you.
