Clinician Stories
Clinician Stories
“Abridge is clinically smart and feels like it has been trained with clinician thinking. It creates a note that resonates with me, reading like a clinician wrote it. Abridge is the first thing I've seen that improves provider wellness and relieves cognitive load, allowing me to be fully present with my patients.”
“Because I'm able to get my notes done faster, I'm also able to get back to my patient messages and my patient phone calls faster. My patients are getting their clinical needs met more promptly.”
“What amazes me is that it’s not scripted. I can talk to a patient, and Abridge will organize my assessment and plan with each problem, no matter how I do it.”
Vision
Abridge has delivered spectacular results for our clinicians. The superior quality of Abridge’s AI-generated note drafts, ease of onboarding, and ability to have a natural conversation made them the obvious choice by our Digital and Remote Health Committee for ambient documentation.
Over the next few months, our goal is to thoughtfully roll out Abridge to every primary care clinician and then expand across additional specialties. We are looking forward to collaborating with the Abridge team to take the solution to the next level, shaping how our clinicians use Abridge to complete medical coding and patient referral instructions.
