‘What’s that website again,’ you think to yourself and not for the first time that clinic.

“Doctor I just need to know if these antibiotics are going to cause problems with my frusemide?”

‘Damn, what was the name of that site again?’

“Well at least can you re-prescribe me my Xarelto, I’m about to run out and don’t want to get another clot.”

“Yep sure,” you say reaching for the script pad, pausing as you remember you need the PBS streamline authority code. So you Google it and click the first link, only to end up at the Public Broadcaster Service website yet again. ‘I hate it when that happens…’

As a doctor you’re expected to mentally juggle veritable filing cabinets of medical knowledge, guidelines, prescribing rules, medicolegal considerations, soft skills, hard skills, and know where to find orders of magnitude more information when needed at the drop of a hat. So you thank heaven for the internet and make very sure you always have a browser window open, ready for that next surreptitious search on the part of your screen(s) the patient can’t see from their seat in your clinic room. The only problem is that as good as Google is, it can’t read your mind. To be sure you’ll find that rarely used calculator eventually. But as you waste precious minutes searching, the waiting room just keeps on filling up.

We’ve all been there.

Now there’s a better way.
