MDoffice (Eye Care Leaders) Software

Pros

THE PROGRAM IS CONVIENT AND CAN BE CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS AND WANTS WITH PATIENT DATABASES.

Cons

THE PROGRAM IS VERY SLOW TO LOAD AT TIME AND OFTEN FREEZES BUT ANYTIME YOU CALLED SUPPORT THEY WORKED ON IT VERY QUICKLY TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED FOR YOU.

Buyer beware. The excellent reviews are absolutely false.

Pros

Decent interface if it doesn't freeze up. It does make a pretty looking pdf note without too much garbage when it's all said and done.

Cons

Speed or lack thereof. The speed, even after thorough troubleshooting, is a 100% deal breaker. Typical load times are 20 seconds or longer. Autosave is unreliable, which means I find myself doing duplicate work. Multitasking is impossible without having multiple instances of the EMR open. For instance, checking a tickler (e.g. instant message) automatically pulls you out of the patient and forces you into another patient. You then have to go through the lag time of loading all over again.

Easy to use, easy to learn and works well. I love the interface, it's easy to understand, efficient and accurate and it's professional.

Pros

The layout

Cons

Lag

The system is easy to use and train on. The one thing I would have to say is the customer support is top notch. When we have problems we know that we can email the problem and within typically a few minutes someone is going to be answering us.

The only thing I would say is when there is upgrades sometimes it doesn't go as smoothly as we would like it. But all systems have bugs and kinks that come up. This is just a minor problem that we know may happen

Recommendations

I would say is to talk to other offices that use MDOffice. Also my suggestion is to go and visit an office that has them and see who it works for them. See the flow of the system.

MD Office has been an amazing addition to ophthalmology. After much hesitation, we decided to join the world of electronic medical records and MD Office was our savior. The software, training and support staff are far superior than any company we interviewed. I recommend their product to any one who is considering EHR. From day 1 to year 4.... We are beyond impressed.
