Great, intuitive app

I am an EM resident and have tried many various point of care reference tools. The design of this is the best I’ve used: it is incredibly, well-organised, logical, and easy to navigate to look up symptoms and make disposition choices. Would be nice if had quick drug reference and a place for personal notes, but overall I am really impressed with this app and think it’s a great resource for junior doctors who sometimes want to refresh memory about common presentations
Very useful for an intern

Have been using this app in my 4th yr of med school and as an intern on admitting days (thanks to Dr Milzman who rec’d it to me). Excellent design, concise, and easy to navigate, with useful links and pearls. Keep up the good work!
