What users are saying

1. for those who dont know , the app presents many Clinical pages , compiled as a succinct notes on diseases and procedures , there also a segment featuring Recommendation for antibiotics based on diseases and many more awesome featuresI am a brand new provider so my experience is limited but I really like the format and the information that is displayed.

2. I will be looking for an alternative until the app is fixed.Great content but major bug issues on Galaxy s21 1) when scrolling long pages app freezes 2) if you scroll through a page, back out of it, and then try to return to the same page, the page will have no content (blank white page) .

3. The annoying thing is it has to "rebuild"/update practically every time I use it (since I only go in every few weeks or less), which makes it basically unusable on those occasions.It's so good, almost everything you need to know in ER in one app.

4. Thank you for making this app & helping physicians save livesI had uninstalled this app long back due to login issues , but having reinstalled it , the app appears smoother and more aesthetically pleasing to use , with no more login issues .

5. I work in the UK so some of the treatments are very American based but the main reason I love this is for the differentials list for any disease.

6. The search function is very challenging now - for example, you can no longer search "UTI", you have to type "acute cystitis." If your search term isn't perfect it will not work.

7. Has occurred on STEMI and hyperkalemia page on my breif testingThe app was 5 stars, but recently, everytime I try to sign on, it immediately shuts down.

8. I think that I may have lost my notes.Excellent app! Really good to have such good summaries at your finger tips.

9. If you are in rush in your routine clinical work & need quick review.

10. I've been using it for about 4 years and I have happily paid the donation price (although it is free).

11. Nice to see quick differential list to compare to my own list.It is an excellent app.
