What's the best indication that Physician Scheduler® software is meeting the demanding scheduling needs and expectations among anesthesiologists and general surgeons at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Vallejo, California?

"It's clear that the program has been successful here because I don't hear anything negative anymore about the scheduling process," states Blaise Seraile, the Service Director responsible for surgical services and anesthesia at this full-service medical center, which is located near San Francisco.

"If something is broken here, you'll hear about it," he says. "I simply don't hear complaints anymore from physicians about their schedules. And that's great since everyone has a lot better things to do than deal with scheduling issues."

Physician Scheduler has been utilized at the medical center since 1997, beginning within the Department of Anesthesia and later expanding to General Surgery.
