Pros

“The customization was moldable to our clinic's procedures.”
DJ

David J.

Practice Manager

Pros

“We had some confusion when first using the system with processing payments but we quickly worked with the support team and they helped us with a SOP to prevent this problem from happening”
KO

Kelsey O.

RVT

“Our medical team is able to customize templates to their preferances and finds the integration with our medical services and referral partners seamless. ”
MW

Michelle W.

CEO

“The anesthesia charting for accurate monitoring, the whiteboard feature for inhospitality patient care, and the ability to put in orders and have them be math-checked to reduce potential incorrect dosing.”

Cons

Cons

“Also occasionally, the lag time for the "tagged to" symbol to appear on a patient's chart is slow, so multiple coworkers have started to work on the same patient without realizing it.”
MM

Megan M.

ICU and ECC CVT

“The rest of the PIMs is a little more clunky and the medical records sent to other hospitals are cluttered and a bit harder to interpret.”
JW

Jonah W.

Veterinarian

“Toggling back and forth can cause some time delay when toggling between treatments to fill out discharges.”
