Laurie R.: Hi, I'm Lori, nurse practitioner and business owner, and I give SimplePractice a rating of five. For more reviews like this, be sure to click below. Before I found SimplePractice, I had tried several other software platforms, Kareo as well as Charm, and I just really love the simplicity and ease of use of SimplePractice. As a single practitioner and business owner, I don't have a full staff, so this really enabled me to be able to do everything, bill my clients as well as collect payments and document all their care, all in one simple, easy format. I really, after reviewing several other options, I've chose SimplePractice because I can use it on my mobile device, so I'm not locked to a desk. And we're all mobile these days, so I can use it on any mobile device and I can help them create appointments. I can see my clients. I can document. I can do it all from the app. And it makes my life so much easier, both business-wise, professionally and then, also, personally, because I'm not spending all my time locked away to a desk and in an office somewhere trying to keep up with everything. So it really, really did simplify my practice and my business. It was so easy to integrate this into my business, really basically just downloading the app and documenting, putting in all of my business practice information, and that was it. One of the simplest setups ever, and I don't have to worry about anything else because it's all right there. And so I'm not having to tell my clients, "Oh, wait. Let me get back to the office," because the office is always there with me on my phone, or my laptop, or my iPad. Super simple. If you're looking for a really efficient and easy to utilize software for your practice, I highly recommend taking a look at SimplePractice. Pop into the app store, look at it. You can download the free trial if even necessary to get a feel for it, take it for a test drive, so to speak. And I think you'll really be pleased with what they have to offer, the support services, but most importantly, the ease of use and the efficiency that it allows you to have to take back your life and your day.
