The website I've listed provides an immense amount of data on medical apps which already exist on the market. In addition to just the basic facts about any medical application the website serves as a peer review hub in which medical professionals, working in the field with the technology, are providing feedback on what works and what doesn't. The review sections are organized by top apps, app type, medical specialty, and can also be searched based upon the type of smartphone the clinician was using to run the application in the first place.
As a natural skeptic coming across this site was an eye-opening experience. Beyond the sheer volume of healthcare applications that already exist in the market today, the value of clinicians' experiences with the applications could not be overstated. Medicine is already characterized by their inherent belief in the peer review system, all the best medical journals and research finding are thoroughly scrutinized through this process. The fact that medical apps are now receiving attention from a broad range of clinicians in an organized and documented manner is the beginning of these apps finding a permanent home in the healthcare setting.
More than 75% of doctors already use a smartphone or tablet at work, expect that number to rise.
