To enter the contest, participants just need to submit a short form on DocDoc's 'Tell Your Story' contest page (https://www.docdoc.com/contest), including a brief description about how the prize might change the winner's life.
QiuQiu recently utilized the DocDoc healthcare platform and Appointment-By-Phone concierge service to set up a rhinoplasty and fat grafting surgery with Dr. Lee of REZEN Medical Group, also known as the plastic surgeon to the top K-pop stars. DocDoc sponsored QiuQiu's travel and accommodations to Seoul, South Korea.
Part one of QiuQiu's 3-part video series was viewed over 26,000 times on YouTube within the first few days of its release and can be viewed at: http://youtu.be/b-h4u_fNla4
QiuQiu's first blog post in the series can be read at: http://bongqiuqiu.blogspot.sg/2013/04/seoul-far-so-good-nose-job-fat-grafting.html
"I love knowing that DocDoc's 'Tell Your Story' contest has the potential to change someone's life," said QiuQiu. "A dental smile makeover, for example, has the potential to boost someone's self- confidence. Breast reconstruction surgery might help someone conquer the devastating effects of cancer.
