Many changes needed for better efficiency
1. Please put the option to add multiple photos at once into an album. Having to add one photo at a time is wasted time.
2. Why have add text and edit text? Why not have one option to add/edit text. It adds unnecessary buttons and waste space to have both.
3. Being able to copy previous encounters notes should be easier. I’m confused on who had the bright idea to update clicking on encounters, then having to click edit to have a full view of an encounter and yet I still cannot copy on either page option? What is the point of having two “different” views of the same note. Waste of software coding, waste of date being used to make this app EVEN SLOWER, and again wasting my time.
All of the “changes” from this update have just caused further inefficiency and wasted time. Why are we clicking multiple buttons to get to one place? If you are hiring for clinical analysis, please hire people with previous clinical experience as it is very apparent no one who works on this app has ever worked in a clinic.

Better before the update
The prior version had its issues; however this new update is ridiculously counterintuitive, and I think it will lead to lots of misdocumentation.
1. Because the "encounter" tab and "chart" tabs can have two different patients simultaneously and the names of the patients aren't very large or in a clear place, users working quickly may scribe in the wrong chart.
2. When I go to click "prescriptions," I'm never really searching for what prescriptions might be queued but not sent. I'm looking for the HISTORY. This is especially relevant now that the rx history button is harder to find. So the default being the "pending action" prescriptions is not helpful and necessitates extra clicks to get to the right page.
3. If I'm scrolling through the menu bar of a patient (summary, cart, reports, etc.), the photo album should be there too, just like it always has been. That was way more convenient and intuitive. Now on mobile, you have to click the 3 dots on the bottom toolbar to then find the album.
4. When scrolling through that same menu bar, you can't find the patient's name and DOB unless you click summary (on mobile) or squint and look at the tiny bar when on ipad. I shouldn't have to click extra to remember whose chart I'm in. That should always be indicated. If I'm using the home screen and click chart and it goes to the menu bar, I have no clue whose chart this is without having to find it.
Overall, it was miles and miles better before this update. Sure, some of the aforementioned extra clicks only make a few seconds' difference, but considering the update tour video emphasized LESS CLICKS, this update is terrible and does not accomplish what it claims to.

Ezderm review
Best EMR for dermatology without a doubt.
Good, but a bit cumbersome
The difference between add text and edit text seems unnecessary.
I also wish there was an option for editing the text that doesn’t make it italicized and unable to transfer over to subsequent notes if needed. Why are there different ways to edit, for example, morphology but one is italic and one is not? Doesn’t seem productive.
I would like if we’re able to change a bunch of procedures at once. Example, my MA uses a prepopulated template for destruction of milia. If I didn’t use numbing, but it was already in the prepopulated template, I need to go back into every individual lesion and remove anesthesia. It’s extremely time consuming.
I also wish we could toggle between free texting an rx sig and having a structured input (I know Athena has this option) it makes it less confusing when sending to the pharmacy.
Athena also has the ability for insurance estimate of each script. Is it possible to add this to EzDerm? Very helpful.

Too slow
This app is great as a specialized app for derm but it’s always lagging. I wait for the chart to load, I wait for the medication to load, I wait for the note to be signed off. It’s understandable if it’s an occasional thing but when you sign off +35 notes a day, it adds up.
