Douglas Simon CEO & President of D S Simon Productions spoke with Dr. Peter Salgo, Host of the PBS Show, Second Opinion at the PRSA Health Academy Conference about the future of healthcare and move toward wellness after healthcare reform.
Some of Dr. Slago’s VlogViews:
Doug’s question: You’ve said PR people might actually be more important to the future of health in this country than Doctors?
Dr. Salgo’s response: “In a very real sense, I believe that. Doctor’s if they are treating disease will treat the failures of the health system of the future. The healthcare system of the future will be there to promote, wellness and doctor’s will be there as a backstop.”
“I don’t think globally to the nation, it (healthcare reform) is going to make health care cheaper. It may even make it more expensive as people live longer but it’s going to make people better. It’s going to make them healthier.”

Le Bron James has done enormous damage to his brand with the way he handled the move, according to Doug Simon, President & CEO D S Simon Productions. It has to go down as one of the worst self-inflicted PR moves yet. Why? The only logical answer is LeBron just doesn’t care.
Some of Doug’s Vlogviews
He has taken his brand and narrative from “King James” to “I’ll get by with a little help from my friends (Wade and Bosh).”
“He was going to be hated for leaving anyway but why give fans a legitimate reason for anger.”
How can he fix his image?
“The only way might be for him to strap on a wet suit, swim 5,000 feet down and stop the BP oil leak.”
