Why they chose Nabla
Nabla adapted to how McFarland clinicians already work—supporting complex visits, streamlining documentation for new encounters, and improving note quality without the need of pre-charting.
Clinicians reported time savings from day one. Many reported finishing charts on time, reducing evening work, and feeling less stress at the end of the day.
Nabla integrates directly into Epic Hyperdrive and was adopted quickly across specialties. Clinicians reported experiencing the shortest learning curve with any technology.
What’s next?
I think that this saves me multiple hours per week and at the very least, it has been a big work satisfaction improvement.
Game changer, It's been great. Workflow is good. Overall excellent experience and it keeps getting better.
I had 262 open charts. That needed documentation. That was my worst. That was my lowest. That is when I considered leaving medicine. Thanks to Nabla, I’m back in the game... This has actually extended my career at least three to five years.
Nabla fits very well in the Epic workflow. It was the shortest learning curve of any technology that I’ve used and probably the easiest technology I’ve adopted in medicine.
