Doctor's Desk & Consultation
Complete consultation workspace with prescriptions, diagnosis, and clinical notes
The Doctor's Desk is the physician's digital workspace within HIMS. It provides a comprehensive consultation interface where doctors can view patient history, write prescriptions, record ICD-10 diagnoses, order lab tests, create clinical notes, use the drawing pad for diagrams, and access the complete patient file. Designed for speed — doctors can complete a consultation in minutes, not just capture data.
