One phenomenon that permeates all aspects of online health; patient engagement; self service; online marketing of anything related to personal health is the issue of trust.

How should the conversation, consultation and ongoing communication be approached? We have gathered a panel of stakeholders who have each grappled with these challenges and each made great strides in their respective fields to highlight and explore some of the many questions.
