After more than 15 years in business, we know what we're doing

It may sound like a silly thing to say but it needs to be said. We’ve been serving clients for many years now and have a wealth of experience dealing with practices of all sizes. We’ve worked with clinics as small as a solo practice, to start-up practices, to well-established multi-location practices nationwide. Our system is well developed, tested, and used. We have the features practices are demanding and the support and training to back it up. Give us a call and find out how you can leverage our experience in your practice.

Empower EMR is easy to use and there are frequent updates that continue to make the clinicians job easier. I have tried two other programs prior to Empower EMR, and Empower EMR is hands down a better product and better company.
