Cerbo

PROS

I am a solo practitioner and Cerbo allows me to do all of the things I need to do. It also allows for a team. I love the online scheduler and that I can process payments. It is very robust and there are features I'm not using yet. I like that they are available to me when my practice reaches that level so I won't have to change EMR's again. Customer support is excellent.

CONS

The cost is high for my small practice. Sometimes I wish I could make small changes to forms, etc. However, customer support is great and they make the changes quickly.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

It best met my needs and I especially liked the way charting is done.

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

I switched because I was looking for a more efficient system for charting.

Vendor Response

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review! We're glad that Cerbo is helping you chart efficiently!

Tried numerous EMR and this is the most versatile & beautiful, perfect for DPC (direct primary care)

EXCEPTIONAL! Very pleasant interaction with support services. EMR with good flow, logic, and efficiency. I have tested numerous EMRs before purchasing this. I have also worked with numerous EMRs in my lifetime as military and civilian physician, and i like this one Cerbo(MD-HQ) for DPC or private clinics, and I like Epic for ER settings.

PROS

This Cerbo (MD-HQ) EMR never stops improving, new features every day driven by customers like me. Amazing customer support, without frustrations nor delays that typically found in many companies. I love the fact that: (1) I can open MANY patient charts at the same time and in different windows and all on the screen for me to view at once (this feature cannot be found in some EMR); (2) I can have ALL the parts of patient chart accessible to me at the same time while typing my notes while talking to patients (instead of having to close my notes to pull up the labs/last notes/specialist scanned charts then re-open my note again); (3) if I suddenly loose power or internet connection my notes are saved automatically and can be found (other EMRs I have lost my 2 hours note before); (4) I can sign my note even without a diagnosis or ICD10 (some EMR forces me to do these before it "allows" me to sign my note); (5) beautiful pleasant colors to look at, endless customizations on my end and on EMR's end with simple email request and voila it's done (6) one EMR with everything I needed for prescribing, sending faxing (I opted out of paying for receiving fax to save money), sending patient portal messages or emailing them from EMR if they don't want to use portal, charges, billing. I use Google voice for my phone and texting. (7) I can pull up a "copy" (which i call "phantom") of my current note 1 minute ago, 2 minutes ago, etc. and pull up something I deleted a while back.

CONS

(1) My encounter notes cannot be bolded or italicized or underlined, wishing I could like in Word documents where I can do those with CONTROL key + "B" / "I" / "U" so I can focus on certain parts when reviewing my own long and detailed notes. As my own solution: I capitalized things that I wanted myself to pay attention to but that makes the note looks kind of ugly. I heard they are working on it to fix this "wish" and I'm praying it will come to pass soon. (2) the specialists across the nation is not pulled in nor searchable (Elation has this ability at this time). I'd like to have it available like that of pharmacies and medication (and labs after integration). It's time consuming to enter fax # and phone # and addresses for each specialists. There are API at [SENSITIVE CONTENT] so I hope they are working on that; for now I have to use that CMS NPI registry website + Google search for the specialists info and set them up individually myself in the EMR as time goes by.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

Flow, Customizations, Expandability, Reliability, Customer Service

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

I no longer work for the other health system that uses Cerner, and I had to choose EMR for my personal private clinic.

Vendor Response

Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are indeed working on a solution for putting rich text in the encounter text (without breaking Chart Parts autotext/ templating) and will take a look at API solutions for searching the NPI database.

Great for Smaller Practices; Needs More Automation

General structure is simple to use, but as you dive deeper into going paperless and utilizing the patient portal, we ran into issues like not having adequate forms for our needs and patients not knowing how to use or avoiding the patient portal.

PROS

Enjoyed that Cerbo was intuitive for scheduling and managing patient information. Customer service representatives were always quick, courteous, and willing to help in any way possible

CONS

Wish the system had a way to send automated messages as reminders to patients about appointments. Patient portal was not intuitive for our patients and even our staff trying to customize it. The tagging system became tedious when attempting to attach the right forms to each patient's portal.

Vendor Response

Hi Courtney! Thank you for the kind words. You can absolutely set up customized/ automated appointment notifications/ reminders for patients! And you can set certain forms to show/ not show on patients' portals based on criteria like their having a certain type of appointment scheduled, so it doesn't have to be all manual tagging. Finally, in terms of patient portal usability, one suggestion if you haven't already would be to add bullet point instructions to the patient portal homepage about the high priority "to do" items for your patients, especially new patients. For help with any of those, please reach out to our support via email and we can direct/ assist further!

Horrid Customer Service would stay away

I purchased the product and then $2300 later they never implemented the product. This company was contacted twice and said well you signed a contract and blamed it on me when they never trained us never set us up for training despite requests and when I asked for money back from a product they charged me $2300 for over three months they refused. What an unethical company

PROS

Absolutely nothing as they were never implemented

CONS

The entire experience and customer service

Vendor Response

Hi Shawn, I am sorry for your frustration! Far from ignoring your requests for training, however, we repeatedly reached out requesting information from your clinic (as needed to get your system configured), sharing videos, and offering training. After a single introductory call (which we scheduled promptly upon request), your office was completely unresponsive. We received no response to multiple follow up messages spanning more than a month, and no other requests or messages from your clinic until your cancellation request.

Cerbo is an amazing EHR

Cerbo has been excellent! I have recommended them to all of my friends

PROS

For practices that do not bill insurance, it is an all-inclusive Electronic Health Record and patient billing platform - you do not need integrations with other software to make it work. It has expansive functionality to accomplish basically anything you would need to accomplish. It has the ability to generate shortcuts (similar to a text expander) so if you find you type the same phrase over and over, you can use a 1 word shortcut instead. And the integrated faxing has saved me an average of 15-30 minutes per day of scanning, uploading, then deleting files for patient's charts.

CONS

The only issue I have come across is it is currently a bit cumbersome to instruct a patient to take multiple tablets of a medication at the same time (so say you want them to take 2 tabs of something twice a day - in other EHRs I've used you can select the number of tabs from a drop down - with Cerbo you have to type it into the directions as there is no "tab number" drop down). Otherwise it is a fantastic software - the best EHR I have used.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

They were the only one that was all-inclusive

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

I needed more structure to my notes

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review! We're so glad that you chose Cerbo and that it is working well for you. Stay tuned for changes coming soon that will make it simpler to prescribe multiple or half tablets per dose. In the meantime, saving your often-used rx dosing profiles (with applicable amounts, notes to patient, notes to pharmacy, etc. as desired) may be a good time-saver.

Very please

They have always responded to questions or glitches very quickly and usually with solutions far above what I was expecting.

PROS

I like that the software is easy to use, customizable to what I need, and the support is great. The single greatest feature of the software is the patient portal, which allows people to register as initial patients, access parts of their records, and correct demographics. I also like the fact that I can add supplements I use frequently so that I don't have to rewrite them each time.

CONS

There's very little I don't like. I would like to be able to reorder fax pages, but it's pretty easy to work around.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

It came down to Atlas and Cerbo because of medium range price, good support, and ability to work outside of the insurance model. Cerbo won out because of better patient portal, fax integration, and working with supplements.

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

The support from Amazing charts became unusable, which is what finally made me make the switch. The fact that faxing and patient portal weren't integrated into the software was also challenging, but would not have been enough to make me switch on its own.

Vendor Response

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review! We are glad that Cerbo has been working well for you.

Highly Recommended

I'm loving the tasks options for myself and my virtual administrative assistant and I feel like it helps me stay focused and creates a great follow-up schedule with patients so people don't fall through the cracks.

PROS

It has everything I need. It has the calendar, a real robust patient portal, e-prescribing, and my virtual administrative assistant can login and do her work too. It creates great invoices for patients. And I especially love the supplement and wellness plan charts I can make for patients.

CONS

It isn't as visually asthetically pleasing as Elation but I love its functionality most.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

The patient portal, and all the other bells and whistles: supplement chart, messaging with patients, ability to see patient's patient portal, and all the other amazing features I'm still learning how to use the forecasting and checking clinic growth.

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

I didn't like their lack of patient portal, and I couldn't create a nice supplement chart and treatment plan chart for patients.

Thanks for sharing your experience! We're glad that you chose Cerbo and it's working well for you so far!

Started my Practice with Cerbo

When I started my Functional Medicine Practice I chose Cerbo. The team is always available and tries to make things happen. Colleagues have seen my EHR and ask about it because it is so user friendly and all patient information is very accessible.

PROS

Flexibility and ability to customize to my needs. During the Covid-19 pandemic they turned on telemedicine overnight.

CONS

There are no templates and I find myself transcribing all of the labs into the note. Sometimes it types backwards and needs to be reset. Sometimes I click something and large portions of the note are erased. Luckily the software saves the note every few seconds so not all is lost but a little bit of time.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

It was a more versatile platform to grow into.

Vendor Response

Thanks very much for sharing your experience! We hope to add a template-sharing library in the future, and I know that will be a welcome addition. Do you know that there are already a few different options for pulling lab values into the note (if they're received or entered as structured data). If you'd like more information, please reach out to our support email.

Cerbo is User-Friendly and Responsive

While every EMR has its strengths and weaknesses, I find that Cerbo by MD-HQ is by far the most user friendly and the team is the most responsive of any clinic-based EMR that I've used over the years (which includes Practice Partner, e-MDs, and Epic). Thank you MD-HQ!!!

PROS

Love the chart parts and ability to customize items. Love the ability to load and build handouts into the chart parts. Love the Dashbord, and the side tiles when in the note (so it's easy to access info wherever you are). Also love how responsive their team is to questions and requests. My patients consistently say it's the best, most user-friendly EMR patient portal that they've ever used (I agree!).

CONS

Their medication section is difficult to view (when meds are popped into the note, it's just name and dose, but the sig (which is just as important in my opinion) is not included. Cannot easily build a table/flow-chart that includes labs, meds and comments (for example would like to be able to track thyroid panel, meds, recommended changes and recheck --or-- lipid panel with meds, diet and other changes). Can view a table with the labs, but that's not as clinically relevant as the more robust chart with meds and free-form comments.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

Affordability, customizability (great for functional medicine), friendly knowledgeable staff

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

Residency ---> Private Practice ---> Hospital-Owned Practice ---> Solo Direct-Pay Functional Medicine Clinic

Vendor Response

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review! We actually have a configuration option to have the sig pull into the encounter note when you pull the medication list in. So we'll get that set up for you now! And we've been brainstorming an improved timeline tool that might address some of that longitudinal tracking you're looking for. Stay tuned!

Cerbo: Well worth it!

PROS

I've had Cerbo since I started my practice in 2017. It is highly customizable and I have tailored it to meet my medical practice's needs. My favorite thing is the customer service. Unlike big EMR's where they give you a ticket and get back to you within weeks, Cerbo's specialists often respond within hours and fix problems same day. They also offer creative solutions that I may not have recognized that are better than my proposed way of documenting.

CONS

I only wish they had an integration with Spruce, a telephone/texting system, popular with Direct Primary Care Practices.

Reason for choosing Cerbo

Another practice was using this product and were quite satisfied, so I followed their lead.

Reasons for switching to Cerbo

Cerbo is much more agile and customizable to meet my needs.
