Welcome to RadioMD

Written by 

Welcome to RadioMD! We're so glad you're here.

My name is Elle, and I'm the Communications Director here at RadioMD. Mostly what that means, is I have the completely excellent job of listening to you. I love it! It's the best part of my day, and whether it's here, on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, in the comments on the different health segments and recipes, or via email - my job is to make sure we're getting you the information and expert advice you need.

RadioMD is not only a new website, it's also a whole new health portal....one that's dedicated to helping you live a healthier, more satisfied, and all around happier life. We have a great team of health experts and technical professionals who are working hard every day to bring you the latest, most up-to-date healthy living information.

One of those great experts is Dr. Michael Roizen, who comes to you live for two hours each week, with his YOU The Owner's Manual Radio Show. You probably already know him from his popular YOU books, co-written with his partner, Dr. Mehmet Oz. Together they also bring you the life-changing RealAge and YOUBeauty. Dr. Mike and his co-hosts, Dr. Deb Lonzer (a top-notch pediatrician), and Dr. Arthur Perry (a world-class cosmetic surgeon), sit down each week to talk about a wide range of health topics, and you're welcomed to email or call-in during the live webcast. If you miss the live program, you can still get in on the conversation by leaving questions and comments on previous episodes.

Along with the terrific Dr. Mike, we have a whole line-up of daily live webcasts that allow you to engage with some of the very best health, wellness, fitness and medical experts in the world. We have a weekly Healthy Children hour, with regular guests from our terrific partners at the American Academy of Pediatrics, and hosted by one of our favorite moms, Melanie Cole, MS. The experts share with you the very latest information on a wide array of kids' wellness and parenting topics, and you're always welcome to email or text your thoughts or questions to our live kids' health expert.

I should point out, that if Facebook's your thing, you can always head over to our page and join the simultaneous web chat that's available there whenever we have an expert (and that's pretty often, so if you want to 'like' us on fb, we'll post a heads-up in your news-feed letting you know which expert's coming on next.)

Are you looking to get fit? Or at least, y'know...fitter? It's no big secret that many of us could use a boost in that area, so we're excited to have teamed up with the American College of Sports Medicine to bring you Train Your Body. A program where, whether you're an amateur athlete, the parent of a young person involved with sports, or just interested in becoming more fit, you can find expert answers to solving your fitness and training challenges. Melanie Cole hosts this show, too, and as an experienced personal trainer (and Exercise Physiologist), she's the perfect guide to help you find your motivation and overcome the road blocks that are getting in your way. Plus, she has her own fitness challenges - 2 kids, a busy career, an active friends & family life - so she really understands how rewarding it can be when you do take time to take care of your body.

Ok...there really is so much more, and we've just barely scratched the surface of what this new RadioMD is all about, but I've communicated enough for now, and look forward to hearing from you. I'm most easily found by popping a comment on our Facebook page, or @YourRadioMD on Twitter. Or, of course, go ahead and drop a comment below and let us know what kind of experts you'd like us to bring on, and what topics you'd like us to discuss.

And did I mention? Thank you for being here, and I look forward to seeing you on RadioMD often!
