Dr. John Kagan Provides Surgical Animations on New Web Site Designed to be an Educational Resource for the Community

Patients of Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon John Kagan, M.D.—as well as community members—can now learn about surgical procedures and pain management options without ever leaving their homes.

Fort Myers, FL, March 07, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Kagan is one of the only Orthopedic Surgeons in Southwest Florida to offer a robust education package that includes surgical animations on his new Web site, www.KaganOrtho.com. The new site serves as an education and support tool. “There was a time when procedures and treatments were a mystery to most people. Those days are long gone!” Dr. Kagan says. “This new site is, I believe, a very useful tool for my patients and members of the community who want to learn more about orthopaedic conditions, procedures and pain management.”

In the Patient Education section of www.KaganOrtho.com, visitors to the site can watch surgical procedures—such as ACL repairs and total joint replacements—from start to finish with animations on ViewMedica®, software from Swarm Interactive.

The Patient Education section of the site contains information about more than 400 procedures and conditions, including pain management. All animations are also available in Spanish.

Dr. Kagan also uses the educational animations to review procedures with patients during office visits. “I treat the doctor-patient relationship as a partnership. I want my patients to be as informed as they possibly can prior to a procedure, so we can work together to achieve the best possible outcome,” he says.

On www.KaganOrtho.com, patients can also print full-color brochures that describe various conditions and procedures, schedule an appointment and download new patient forms prior to a visit. Members of the community can also use the site to sign up for one of Dr. Kagan’s community seminars.

There are even options to follow Dr. Kagan on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook. “I try to give my patients all the necessary tools to have a positive outcome and the best possible quality of life. I want them to know that I am there for them, in any way that I can be,” Dr. Kagan says.
