  • Don't "upgrade". I made the mistake!

    I'll be reverting back to the old version.
  • Deceptive Publishers

    MedCalc was much better, MedCalx was just created so that the publishers could start charging for features that were previously free.
  • I want more information!

    Some things to make this a much more powerful app would be to include more information like the actual equation and how to exactly interpret the results (missing in some eqs). Also, I would love some information on pathophys and mechanism of why some parameters affect a score . . i.e. why would an increase creatinine affect someone's MELD score. I retain things better if I know how it works. . I can input data and get a score in any other website or calculator.

  • Excellent

    Indispensable app for any medical resident.
  • Still the best

    I use this app loads and having paid for medcalc3 they do not make you pay again, so has long term potential. They appear to respond to requests for new formulas to be added, but copyrights prevent things like the MMSE which is a shame. Apple have forced them to remove the integrated opiate equivalence calculator, which is a pity. Probably legal idiots who don't recognise the benefit that these calculators bring to patient care - I have returned the old laminated piece of paper that isn't affiliated to any organisation or pharma company to my bag

  • New iteration works well

    Yes, it's a bit of a hassle to upgrade, however if you previously purchased MedCalc there is a relatively painless process for migrating all your data to this new iteration. MedCalX works as well as MedCalc did and is worth the money if you want all the most up to date medical formulas with their PubMed links.

  • Still the best calculator

    This is still the best calculator and my daily go-to app. There’s only 1 or 2 formulas I’m missing that would be great to see added in the future (FIB-4 and West Haven please!). Not sure why they made a new app again but the import worked without problems and I didn’t have to pay again.
  • disceptive!

    I have the full MedCalc app and received the message that they are changing the program to MedCalx. They state that if you have the unlocked MedCalc, that MedCalx would be unlocked, and all you have to do is have both applications downloaded at the same time. Well, it's not unlocked, and my preferences were not carried over. At best, this is deceptive; at worst, the developer is lying. Don't delete MedCalc from your device and keep using that "older" version!

  • Fewer formulas, pay once again

    This app is good, I won't deny that. But... How come with each new version (which has the same formulas or even less in some cases) I have to pay to unlock them if I already did with Medcalc 2.7.5 (3230) which by the way had the best functionalities and access to all formulas.

    I won't pay again, too bad they don't offer support to the older and better version

  • Doesn't work

    Did not keep my doximity membership despite claiming it would. Formulas locked.
