    CHANDLER, AZ, April 25, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Alan Discont, Chandler, AZ podiatrist, has announced the recent launch of his practice blog.

"Much like a journal, my new practice blog allows me to contribute articles, podiatry news and other noteworthy information to my patients," said Dr. Alan Discont, Chandler podiatrist. "Patients then have the option to comment to my posts, and likewise, I can reply to patient feedback, thus creating an ongoing stream of interaction between the practice and the patient."

In addition to Dr. Discont's blog, patients can also learn more about their Chandler foot doctor by visiting and joining the practice's social network.
