As healthcare grows ever more expensive and complicated, more and more people are turning to the Internet for everything from diagnosis to treatment options.  More telling still is the fact that doctors are also using the web for everything from consultation to telesurgery.  Even computer giant IBM has anted up, retooling their Jeopardy winning Watson computer into Dr. Watson the diagnostician.  For those of us who lead active lives, not to mention the mobility impaired, turning to the doc in the “eBox” can not only save time, but lives.
