Title: iPhone 4 " video calling " Medical Consultations
An iPhone 4 “video calling” medical consultations since the phone’s release, surgeons at Valley Presbyterian Hospital near Los Angeles and University of Arizona used the advanced technology to successfully collaborate long distance in “real time” on a wound consultation for a patient, per Valley Presbyterian Hospital .

Using the “ FaceTime “ feature on the iPhone 4, Dr. David G. Armstrong, professor of surgery at the University of Arizona's Southern Arizona Limb Salvage Alliance (SALSA), was able to instantly connect with Dr. Lee Rogers, associate director of Valley Presbyterian Hospital’s Amputation Prevention Center, near Los Angels, CA by video calling. What is essentially a simple phone call, turned into a long distance consultation and second opinion for a patient who recently underwent surgery.
I am sure this could be a thrill to Docs over at Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VISN 1), the New England Health Care System. This one is for you Craig.
