Cindy: These sites are as relevant as they ever were - even more so. This will not cease to be the case until they stop coming up first in search engine results pages. I've used these sites successfully in my practice to get referrals and plenty of other side benefits. I've created a Quick Start Guide to the Doctor Rating Sites which can be downloaded for free at my website. It's a great resource for any doctor ready to use these sites to their advantage! Check it out. Here's the link again: http://bit.ly/rprsg-t Thanks for the post. CNH http://www.reachpatients.com
