This looks to be an interesting partnership and I am guessing the information being made available is actual information that can be helpful and I say this because imagethere’s a lot of stuff on Sermo that ends up being debates on other matters or some real rip roaring conversations that are opinionated in content, although those are very interesting and entertaining I must say having seen a few of them. 

The news release also did not say whether or not the doctor’s name or screen name will also be used, so I guess we shall see it when it appears over at Fierce.  Also in the news, Sermo announced their medical mobile application for MDs today.  BD
