Doctors’ Web site offers connections for fun and exercise

Kevin Robertson, DO, and Philip O’Halloran, MD, were on the Utah slopes a few years ago hoping to cross paths with other skiers when an idea occurred to them. It would be useful to have a Web site linking people who participate in various physical activities, such as skiing. In turn, this network could help people become more physically active and try out new activities. As an added benefit, it might help eliminate at least one excuse — not having an activity partner — that so many patients had given them for not getting off the couch.
“We want to take that excuse away,” said Dr. O’Halloran, a staff emergency physician at St. John Health in Warren, Mich.
