accurate statement. It is

constructed, from the initial

build to the go-live date, to

be the way you want it, so

it is truly my way of doing

medicine...Working with the

system has been extremely

easy...When I’m not in the

office I can access patient

information. [Patients] like

that I have very ready access

to their information, especially

from home. They feel more

comfortable that I’m giving

them the best healthcare

I can.
