WELCOME TO THE DASH DIABETES LIFESTYLE NETWORKNo one was talking about diabetes.
So we created DDN for diabetics and the people who love us.
Diabetes is a growing epidemic the sterile medical community has been underserving for decades. We're introducing a new conversation to the mix with a wealth of real world knowledge. Our community of musicians, filmmakers, actors, entrepreneurs, holistic doctors, chefs and fitness gurus speak out about diabetes awareness and the personal experiences they’ve had with the disease. Let's learn together, check it out. Sponsor / Afrezza
Host / Dr. Damon Dash
Wifey for Lifey / Raquel Horn www.dashdiabetesnetwork.com/welcome/

In one release it says "hip hop mogul" on the second he's the host and claims to be a doctor. His title is "Dr. Damon Dash".
If he's not a real doctor (and I don't think he is), I have a REAL problem with this.
This is not how you get credibility for Afrezza...
Sorry to be negative, but fake doctors piss me off.

I think MNKD has done something positive. How can a person who is looked up to a lot of people be bad. I want to also add that I would be willing to bet Dame has influence in certain demographics that cant be overlooked. I would also be curious to know the current profile of Afrezza users. My hunch is that the majority are caucasian. This is based compelety on my exposure to social media. Secondly. I am sure that MNKD legal is all over what he can and cant say. But up until now, Afrezza really could not be considered 'cool'. Not that medicine ever is. But, with SYN's marketing strategy Afrezza was your grandma's insulin. Doing direct to mail etc. Others on social media(no offense) Spiro for example is not the youngest of supporters. I for one see this as a huge step in getting the word out. BTW. My previous thread was speculating this point but many on this board felt he would make a poor choice. No need to dwell. So, come on Dr. Dash! Sell some RXs baby! |

I had a nice discussion with Damon at the ASM. He is a doctor of "hip hop". Now I have a real problem with medical doctors who continue to treat diabetics as if it were still a black art. They are worse than fake. They are slowly killing people. Finally at ADA 77 the page was turned on A1c and now the focus is time in range. What ever Damon can do to tell the world about afrezza I am all for it. I would even volunteer to drive him around. Between this and Edelman's interview maybe things are finally turning. July's ADA time in range meeting should be interesting. |

I agree it's great to have somebody that has a big following but I have a feeling Mike's going to need to be on top of this guyt to keep him in line if he's not a doctor saying Dr. Damon Dash is simply and flat out a false Statement and could lead to lawsuits frivolous or not. May not seem likely but it is possible secondly and I've been saying this all along. he needs to use the inhaler correctly look at the length of time he inhales compared to Dr. Edelman And others that have been showing how it works the last two years he's used it as someone that has ADHD and can't focus more than a second and is giving the impression that it is a one second inhale and looks foolish since it's not the correct way if you're going to be the face of a Frezza be the face that makes true statements and utilizes the product correctly. |

so just throwing it out in the atmosphere, I have a neighbor with a phd in education. Her name on her checking account is Dr. so and so.
Heh, my father and grandfather had doctorates. When I was young, I asked my father why didn't he go by doctor, he laughed.
I believe the actual correct nomenclature for physician is M.D.
Doctor is a slang term we use?
Just sayin

Who cares what he refers to himself as. Afrezza couldn't have any worse of a perception.

This is Damon's TV network, he owns it and so he can call himself whatever the hell he wants. No one in their right mind would actually believe he is a physician, it is just the angle he is taking as the Host of his TV network. The white coat has Poppington on it. I guess people will find a reason to hate on anything cool and positive. At least the man is dead serious about helping others.

I think this is a great move. He should garner a great deal of media attention, and as an Afrezza user with nothing but positives to say he will be a terrific spokesperson. I hope that with his celebrity he can generate awareness amonst celebrity diabetics such as Tom Hanks and Halle Berry who might down the road have some good words to say about Afrezza.. As a former brand marketer, I doubt he will be able to use the Dr. part in advertising. I like it though, so long as he handles it in a way that makes it clear that he is not a medical Dr. Hey, when I was young we had Dr. J (Julius Irving) - a basketball player. And now Dr. Dre. Why not Dr. Dash.

Guess what, if he can start a controversial debat on his labelling himself in a large audience, I would consider we got our money's worth. |
