Techie Doc.

A doctor friend of mine is eyeing a smartphone. He heard about this free drug reference wherein a physician or any healthcare professional can easily and immediately access the information needed in prescribing drugs in relation to doses, side effects, and health plan coverage. This medical reference software by Epocrates Inc can be loaded on Personal Digital Assistants (PDA), smartphones, Blackberries and soon on iPhone devices. And this is the reason why he's wanting a Smartphone. He finds this reference very useful especially that prescribing decisions are always critical. And luckily there are techie gadgets such as these. These definitely make the physician's lives a lot easier. Who says doctors can't be techie too?

This announcement was paid for by Epocrates.
