The Social Network Where Doctors Swap Gross Pics of Patients

September 29, 2015

(Wired) – Figure 1 is for doctors, nurses, EMTs, and the rest of the professionally unsqueamish to share the latest morbidities from their shifts. Sure, some of the pictures are straight up medical oddities. But just as often, users post because they are stumped and looking for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, nth opinion. Or because they want to stump members of their community with little diagnostic quizzes. Compared to other social media, the app’s user base is small; it just surpassed 500,000 users last week.
