Patient Education Solutions, LLC, was founded by Dr. Frederick D. Poage in 2020.
Dr. Poage lives in Amarillo, Texas, with his wife, 2 sons, and 2 dogs. He is passionate about patient education, fully believing that educating our patients is one of the most important tasks a physician can do. Unfortunately, it is also one of the areas where we fail the most.
Studies show that patients forget >80% of what a physician’s discharge instructions are before they even make it to their car. Add to that trying to manage a crying child, a sick spouse, time crunch, etc - and how can anyone be expected to remember how the doctor said to take care of that laceration, or when to use the albuterol inhaler, or what should I look for that means I should return vs following up with my primary doctor?
In an effort to breakdown medical information into digestible portions that are easily accessible, we are creating a database of short videos on common medical terminology, antibiotics, and disease processes. Join us as we grow and expand our database!
