The On Going Project

By Shawn Vuong

Dr. Holm and I continue in our pursuit to make this blog more informative, more educational for patients, and reach a broader range of people. We are currently working on a project to post whole segments of On Call, the famous South Dakota PBS medical broadcast. We hope to be able to post short segments on to YouTube and use them to augment this current text-based blog. After all, streaming video is the wave of the future.

Keep on the look-out for updates!
