Tired of dealing with the frustrations of surgeons whose preference cards are wrong or obsolete? You can now take matters into your own hands with an app called MySurgeon. Available at the App Store on iTunes and at mysurgeon.net, the app, created by a veteran orthopedic physician assistant, lets you create, edit and store surgeons' preferences and procedures, eliminating the need to rely on potentially outdated or inaccurate facility cards.
