Why i-scribe?
Chandra founded i-scribe to address a simple yet critical goal: enabling clinicians to focus more on patient care. One of his favorite moments is seeing the delight on a clinician’s face when the software is customized to fit their needs perfectly—such as tailoring letters to match their preferences during a Zoom demo that led to an instant purchase. For Chandra, even features as simple as the “Copy All Text” functionality, which streamlines the documentation process, demonstrate how i-scribe transforms workflows.
