It feels like just yesterday we rang in the New Year at the end of 2018. Now, at the end of the decade, we here at theMednet have a lot of inspiring stats to look back on! Let's look at a few amazing numbers as we watch theMednet community continue to grow and work towards bettering patient care in oncology!

The top three subspecialties by users were: breast cancer, thoracic malignancies, and gastrointestinal cancers! The top three states by users were: New York, California, and Texas.

A Curious Community

theMednet community asked nearly 1,800 questions in 2019 and 1200 were approved. The conversation didn't stop there. We also received 569 comments to these questions!

Searching for Answers

theMednet operates because of the caring and hard-working physicians that come together to ask and answer questions related to their field. In 2019 we broke so many personal records, and we are so excited to see what 2020 has in store for us!
