Plastic Surgeon releases personal practice iPhone App…err advertisement
Dr. Steven M. Denenberg, a facial plastic surgeon in Omaha Nebraska, has provided the opportunity for iPhone and iPod Touch users to put their where their mouth is with his $0.99 app.
I find it very interesting (read brilliant) that the good doctor is charging other people to view what basically amounts to an advertisement for his practice. I guess if you can cough up the coin for a face lift, then what’s another dollar, right?
Ugh..I feel a maddening rush of personal advertising apps being submitted to the App Store.
From the wire…
Now There’s an App for People Interested in Plastic Surgery
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 16 /PRNewswire/ — An intuitive new iPhone application, developed by facial plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Denenberg, allows you to view hundreds of before-and-after photos, turn your iPhone around to take your own photos, and with the touch of a button, email them to the doctor with your questions – like a free online consultation – all while sipping your latte.
“The iPhone app is the next powerful communication tool,” Dr. Denenberg said. “Just as most plastic surgeons now have Web sites, soon most will realize the value of using this new technology to describe their practices, display their skills, and give patients easy ways to contact them. With Apple on track to have 60 million iPhones sold by the end of 2009, and 120 million by the end of 2010, doctors can’t ignore the importance of adding an iPhone app to their practices.”
To check out Dr. Denenberg’s iPhone app, search the App Store for “Denenberg” or go to http://www.App33.com, for a links, video, screenshots, and app instructions.
