Starting on Social Media?

1.
Concentrate on Video Content

Video content reigns supreme on social media platforms. Doctors can take advantage of this trend by creating informative, educational and engaging videos, including live Q&A sessions. Video content is particularly effective at grabbing audience attention. That’s why it’s a powerful tool doctors can use to connect with and grow their audience. You can also transform static photos into dynamic video content. This is something plastic surgeons have gotten especially good at, showcasing clients before & afters. Here’s another video content idea: a dermatologist could create a simple 3-step skincare routine or talk about the importance of using sunscreen. Whatever you do, do it in a short-form video.

2.
Stick with Authentic Storytelling

Social media audiences appreciate the truth. That means genuine and personal stories. So, doctors can share their professional journey in becoming a doctor, their experiences, and success stories as a way to humanize their practice. This not only helps build trust but also establishes a more personal connection between a doctor and their patients and followers. For example, a doctor who overcame a health challenge of their own, such as weight loss or quitting smoking, might share that bit of their personal story. Of course, doctors don’t want to share too many personal things, but during strategic times, this is a great way to build patient trust.

3.
Interactive Content Always Works

Do you want more audience participation? Our tip is always to pull out some interactive content. Start a poll or make a quiz on a specific health topic. A general practitioner, for instance, could create a poll asking followers about how they relieve stress. Audiences love to answer questions and they love to see how others think.

4.
Initiate Health Challenges to Bring Awareness

Remember the "ice bucket challenge"? Health challenges like these can generate significant awareness and change the conversation around a particular topic. For doctors, these challenges can be used to promote healthy habits. For instance, a cardiologist might initiate a "Heart Health Challenge," encouraging followers to take pictures of themselves wearing red. They may also encourage followers to share their fitness routines or healthy recipes. Perhaps the best or most unique routine could win a free consultation or a promotional t-shirt.

5.
Collaborate with Content Creators who have a Similar Message

Collaboration is big on social media. Doctors should look for practitioners with a similar message or a message that complements theirs. Collaboration is great for broadening your reach, getting your practice out to a larger audience, and helping you make more friends and contacts. As an example, a nutritionist could collaborate with a fitness influencer to create an exercise and diet routine that really helps patients lose weight.

Draw Potential Patients to Your Practice

Doctors can build an online social media presence without doing the typical “social media routine.” In other words, it’s possible to gain followers in ways that don’t involve making videos, collaborating with healthcare-related creators or running ads. Instead, doctors can leverage non-social media tools in order to gain social media traction. Here are five ideas for enhancing your online presence without using social media:

5 Non-Social Media Ways to Gain an Audience on Social Media

1.
Create Engaging Content:

These are supposed to be “non-social media” ways to gain an audience, but let’s start this list off with something obvious. If you want to build an online presence, it’s important to always be creating social media content. Regularly posting valuable content positions you as a reliable source in the medical field. Share helpful health tips and information. Of course, keep the content relevant to your audience's interests and concerns.

2.
Start a Blog

Blogging has never gone out of style, though some thought leaders think it has because audiences have turned much of their attention to TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Blogs may not be ruling the roost the way they once were, but they’re still super important for building a brand and ranking on google. You can use your blog to delve deeper into medical topics. Also, regularly publish articles on your blog and similar blogs to showcase your expertise. Make your website a go-to resource for health-related information.

3.
Public Speaking and Hosting Webinars

Engage a broader audience (maybe even one outside of your geographical region) by speaking at symposiums, health conferences and by hosting online webinars and educational health sessions. Speaking platforms allow you to share your knowledge, answer questions, and establish credibility beyond your immediate community. There is nothing in particular required for you to speak, all you need is the courage to do it.

4.
Get Involved in Your Community

The most important place for you as a doctor is your local community, but how do you get involved in your local community? It’s easy, but it requires a lot of time and hard work. Attend local health fairs, volunteer for medical missions in your area, and collaborate with community organizations. Work with your local shelter and thrift shops. Actively participating in local events builds trust and exposes your practice to potential patients.

5.
Host Patient Education Seminars

Conduct seminars on specific health topics that are relevant to your patients. You can do these in person or online (or better yet, you can host in person and post online after). These interactive sessions allow direct engagement with your audience.

Making Sure Doctors Never Run Out of Content Ideas

Whether you’re a doctor or a fitness influencer, the biggest challenge for content creators is consistently producing material. The demand for fresh and captivating content is relentless.
