User reviews

More trouble than it’s worth

After having tried and failed multiple times to sign up for the prescribing function, and never getting past the request for identification (when I attempted to upload my driver’s license photo the screen simply went white and reverted to the previous screen), I am giving up on this app. It’s so much trouble to simply sign up that I have a hard time imagining how it will make my practice easier or better.

Pharmacy Search

Difficult to locate pharmacies
on the app. Has no location feature so if you type in CVS, for example, you will get stores in other states. Many prescriptions simply never go through.

Doesn’t work

Doesn’t work. Can’t verify number cause the number entry keyboard that pops up blocks the verify button and doesn’t go away.

Very well designed

I just started using this and found it to be very well designed and easy to use

Fantastic

So convenient and easy to use!! 10/10 would recommend
