The Office of Dr. B.P. Rajesh, M.D., Now Provides Patients with Online Health Education

Oct. 28, 2011 - PRLog -- Dr. B.P. Rajesh, M.D. offers practical health information on its website that supports the needs of his patients and members of the St. Johns community.

Surveys have shown that U.S. adults frequently search online for health information, but are frustrated by the large volume of information they find from questionable sources. A majority of health consumers state that they would prefer to get that information directly from their own doctor. Unfortunately, a majority of physicians report finding it difficult to provide education during an office visit and most medical practice websites lack health information.
