Dr. Jay Parkinson created a high-tech digital interface with a human touch to give patients a consistent home no matter where they roam. It’s good old-fashioned healthcare, upgraded for today’s mobile world. Jay’s take on the healthcare industry has a whole lot to say about the creative process in general.


Topics include:

  • How a doctor becomes a serial entrepreneur
  • Building trust in a market with a lot of distrust
  • What changes say about the economy as a whole
