About Us
Transforming Medical Education
vDOC was built for medical students. It's the tool we have always wanted.
Who we are is simple, we are a group of people who love learning new things. Founder and creator Dr. Bryce Arnold DO, is a practicing internal medicine hospitalist.
What's next for vDOC is going to be up to the engagement of its users. There are many more cases to add, social complexities, and additional interactions that can be added.
Built for everyone
