I have been a member of Sermo for a few long years. During this time, I made more friends, I learned a lot from clinical cases, I got up to date with new medical information, and of course, I made money doing surveys… a lot.

COVID-19, telehealth, cannabis medicine, dietary trends and more—our doctors share their expert opinion on a variety of topics.
As a doctor, being up-to-date on today’s medical news is essential; but remaining on the cutting-edge of the medical world is not easy. A social network for doctors can help empower doctors across medical specialties to achieve their personal and professional goals, while having fun and making meaningful connections with others.
Sermo is the only dedicated online social space for doctors in the world—bringing together more than 1,300,000 triple-verified healthcare professionals, who are looking for and sharing the latest medical insights. By joining Sermo, you can improve your medical practice and grow your health professional network without applying to dozens of professional groups for doctors.
Sermo gives you access to the latest medical news so you can read, collaborate, and discuss with your fellow professionals. The easy-to-use platform provides access to exclusive content, while helping you keep a pulse on the latest happenings in the medical world.
The popularity of social media by doctors had been steadily and consistently growing; but in 2020—as COVID-19 completely changed the way the world communicated—the number of doctors engaging in social media grew exponentially. Sermo experienced an 83% increase in global unique logins on its platform alone—and a 24% increase in time spent on the site.
When doctors were asked to compare doctor-only social platforms against general social media, they said doctor-only platforms offered more credibility, security, privacy, value of information, and allowed a better connectivity with peers.
“Sermo is an excellent tool for connecting colleagues and often helps us share our experiences and clarify diagnostic and therapeutic doubts.” —Sermo Member, Orthopedic Surgeon

Sermo’s unique verification process
Every doctor who signs up with Sermo is required to present evidence of their medical credentials.
This may include a picture of a badge from their place of employment or a copy of their medical license and/or qualifications that contain a photo.
Sermo’s verification of new member credentials uses a combination of humans, data and technology to ensure every member is a verified doctor while making the process as easy as possible for new members.
Identification
The next step in the process is to check that the doctor who is registering matches up with their submitted credentials.
Sermo requires a type of photo ID upon registration, such as a driving license or a passport.
Registration is fast, but this extra step ensures that this platform contains information submitted exclusively by real, practicing doctors.
Confirmation
For doctor networking that cares about the strength and validity of its community, Sermo makes a final check against a database to confirm the member is not already a member or banned from the site for previous “bad behavior.”
Not only is this social network for doctors designed to be an educational place—it is also designed to be a safe place.
Pass these three steps—in just a few minutes—and, as a fully-fledged member, you are ready to start interacting with your peers.
Unlike other medical networking options, Sermo has created a rigorous code of conduct to ensure that the quality of community content and interaction remains high.
You can socialise anonymously with other members of our doctor association or build your personal profile. However you want to connect, Sermo maintains the integrity of this unique doctors networking platform through our credential-checking verification process.
How does Sermo keep member data secure and private?
We make every effort to ensure all sensitive medical information is private. Our site is SSL-encrypted and no individual identifying information about patients or doctors is ever revealed or shared. Additionally, members can choose to create an anonymous profile.
