Pros and cons of Medicine Central app for iPhone and iPad

Medicine Central app good for

This medical suite is a must to have for physicians and doctors working in clinical settings. Of course if you work in a clinical setting and can phone to various specialists probably you find valuable the AZ drugs reference. But if alone at bed of patient or in small hospital, actually you need it. Why? In CCU I was able to make correct diagnosis for unusual diseases and correct treatment. Favorites make easy use the most common topics. What is it missing? A clinical calculator as QX. But all other stuffs there are.
this app is very good and useful. keep you updated and it is easy to use. additionally you can use it in the web too. you only need to put the different pathologies in a subgroup like cardiology(ami, heart failure), neurology(epilepsy, gbs) and so on. this way is easier to find a disease . very recommended.
I really love this application. I use it mostly for drug information. All I can say is that everything is just great. I also have an app produced by Lexicomp which is also good, but the truth is I prefer using this app for information. The presentation of the information is a lot better, and it is easier to use. You can favorite drugs or articles which is a huge advantage over Lexicomp. I also have the Tabers app by unbound which is great too. Im starting to become a loyal follower.
I had a dying Microsoft phone that was constantly giving me trouble and the customer service department at Unbound Medical never stopped trying to help. They went way beyond what you would expect a company to do and then, when I was finally able to qualify for a new iPhone, they made the transition totally painfree. I have always liked their products but, more important to me, I love the people that stand behind them!
Unbound Medicine finally got it right. My main goto app and most comprehensive of all
Really like the info and presentation. Use it all the time! Have 3 others and this is always my go to app.

Some bad moments

Unbound Medicine will not allow you to transfer your purchases or subscriptions to a new iPhone or device. They also refuse to give you any of the non-updated content that you purchased in the past because they want to lock you in to yearly subscriptions. Horrible Customer Service. Rating changed from 5 stars many years ago to 0 stars now.
