Supporting Doctors on the Frontlines Battling Covid-19: How to Become an “Ally of Doctors

2020 has been a tough year, and doctors and healthcare professionals have been working hard on the front lines – more than ever before.

While the coronavirus pandemic has upended life for nearly everyone, healthcare workers and doctors have had to face more risks than most. So many of us are in awe of how these professionals still care for patients despite tremendous challenges.

So how can your audience show appreciation for all the hard work they do?

Mucinex is rallying Americans coast to coast to become an “Ally of Doctors” to show health care professionals and frontline heroes how much we support, appreciate, and trust them.

With only 16% of consumers having reviewed their doctor in the past 12 months, Mucinex is making a nationwide call to action for patients to give back to those who have helped them get better by advocating for their doctors and health care professionals. 

Dr Ian Smith discusses the “Ally of Doctors” campaign and how Mucinex is encouraging consumers to continue to provide genuine, positive reviews and recommendations that can lead to another positive experience for a new patient – building a true Ally of Doctors.

Dr Smith will cover:

What some of the best preventative measures someone can take at home to stay healthy

Why it is important to provide feedback to doctors and how that can improve care for everyone

Telling us more about the “Ally of Doctors” campaign and how consumers can review and recommend their own trusted doctors and health care professionals

How the campaign is helping to support the next generation of frontline heroes
