DOCTOR BY RADIO (Aug, 1953)
It’s telemedicine! Well, sort of.
DOCTOR BY RADIO
DR. GUIDO GUIDA, 60, founder and unpaid head of Rome’s International Radio Medical Center has treated patients via radio from his own home for 17 years. Career began when childhood friend died at sea. Italian government recently assigned six Naval operators to aid him.
It’s a bad idea, I tell ya. Next thing you know, patients will have to go to where their doctors are!
