SurgBook vs SurgTalk

SurgBook is a platform for updating surgical learning through didactic videos, specially edited for understanding of various operative techniques. Our goal is to offer an online enhancement, with new materials selected specially for the need of the modern surgeon. We offer content ranging from the basics to the advanced aspects of the art of surgery.

SurgTalk® is a concierge for 3D animated surgical procedural videos with explanations of the potential risks and complications to enhance patient education of a surgical procedure. - Save Time & Money: Send an email or a text message with the link to the procedure video. Eliminate the extra time spent on drawings and lengthy explanations in the office per patient. Quicker pre-op visits will result in increased office openings to see more patients. - Clarity for patients. - Why 3d animation? Most patients don't like to see actual operative procedures. Viewing blood and internal organs don't always appease to patients. They rather see a schematic representation of the procedure they are about to have. Elevating this experience to 3D animation only gives them a better understanding of the whole procedure and the complexities that are involved. - Benefits for your patients: Give your patient immediate access to the upcoming procedure video, available for them for the next 30 days to review it whenever they want to, in their own time, in the comfort of their home. Moreover, they can show this video to their loved ones who may have missed the initial consultation. All videos are available in English and Spanish. Here is the list of videos we currently have.
