The main feature of the DocCheck Community is the discussions with colleagues section. You can discuss in groups or via private messages. In our service Ask a colleague , doctors and physicians help each other with diagnostic questions and medical topics. You can ask your fellow physicians for advice in complicated cases and unclear diagnoses – or you can even help them out of them!
– DocCheck Pictures is the medical image archive of DocCheck. The archive contains more than 10,000 digital photos, 3d pictures, animations and graphics. The user can store, organize and share his images and photos online. The user can comment on his pictures. By clicking on a picture the user can add a description text or even a professional question for other HCPs (e.g. differential diagnosis, therapy options, 2nd opinion). The questions can then be discussed by colleagues and experts. Cases which are particularly interesting, instructional or disputable will in addition be published within the DocCheck Newsletter, a banner or forwarded by email within our medical community.

– The DocCheck Flexikon (= flexible lexikon, i.e. a Wikipedia for HCPs) is an open medical encyclopaedia, which is expanded and maintained mainly by its users.

We are now starting this summer to take off with an English version. So every HCP is invited to contribute to it!

This year, we have started looking beyond the rim of our European teacup and initiated a partnership with a partner from India. Our goal is to continue our success story and to give Indian HCPs access to services which their European colleagues love using since years.
